On February 23, 2022, New Brunswick announced the new immigration pathway for truckers.
The New Brunswick Provincial Nominee Program (NBPNP) has launched a new pathway specific to NOC 7511 to develop the transportation industry in the province and attract well-qualified truck drivers.
Employers who want to hire foreign nationals should apply to the Temporary Foreign Worker Program and acquire a positive Labor Market Impact Assessment (LMIA).
Both truck drivers and employers must meet eligibility requirements to be eligible to participate in the program.

On February 23, 2022, the Government of Canada introduced a new program delivery update for processing procedures for temporary resident applications.
The Temporary Resident Program Delivery (TRPD) Division corrected the broken link in the instructions regarding the maintained status (previously called implied status) of temporary resident applications.
Applicants, whose second application is submitted during their period of authorized stay in Canada, their status is maintained by the second application until a decision on the second application is finalized.
The date and time of receipt of the application are important for determining if the status is maintained under subsection R183(5).

During the meeting with the Standing Committee on Citizenship and Immigration, Immigration Minister Sean Fraser promised to improve processing times for work permits.
Immigration, Refugees, and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) plans to use around $85 million budget to decrease processing times that have been rocketed after the beginning of the pandemic.
Previously, the minister has announced that IRCC will reduce processing times of work permits, study permits, proof of citizenship, as well as permanent residence card renewals by the end of 2022.
