Canada updated medical examination instructions for temporary resident applicants
On July 6, 2021, the Government of Canada updated the description of the occupations for which temporary residence applicants are required to submit an immigration medical examination.
These are essential public health occupations that require the applicants to be in close contact with people, and regardless of the length of stay medical examination must be submitted.
In addition, medical and health care students, as well as persons who want to apply for a visa or permit and have spent more than six consecutive months in a country for which a medical examination is required, also have to undergo a medical examination.

Canada implemented new regulations for PR applicants
Permanent residence applicants applying outside of Canada need a permanent resident travel document (PRTD) to travel to Canada.
According to the immigration department's website, if the Visa Application Centres are closed in the territory where applicants live, they can submit their PRTD application by email.
Canada's Visa Application Centre in China recently announced on its official website that starting June 1, 2021, applicants for a PRTD need to submit their application to IRCC by email.
The grace period for this process was one month, so PRTD applicants can no longer submit their applications through the Visa Application Centre as of July 1, 2021.

Canada introduced new guidance for temporary resident visas
On June 30, 2021, Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) introduced new instructions for temporary resident visas on processing open temporary resident visa (TRV) applications during the pandemic.
Although the priority is to continue processing applications where the client meets a travel restriction exemption and travels for a non-discretionary purpose,
immigration officers will have to continue to determine to what extent they have the capacity to process non-priority applications,
and process a final decision for open TRV applications for applicants who are not eligible to travel to Canada during the pandemic

IRCC published a new temporary public policy for foreign nationals
On June 30, 2021, the Government of Canada published a new temporary public policy that exempts some foreign nationals from having to complete an additional immigration medical exam as part of their application for permanent residence (PR) or for a permanent resident visa (PRV).
The policy applies to foreign nationals residing in Canada who have submitted or have a pending application for PR or for a PRV and have not yet completed a new immigration medical exam;
or those who have completed an immigration medical exam within the last 5 years and were found not to pose any risk to public safety or health;
and those who have not left Canada for more than 6 months in the last year to live in another country that possesses a higher incidence of a serious communicable disease than Canada.
New instructions will be in effect until December 28, 2021.
