Ontario may lift language and license requirements for in-Canada immigrants

On October 21, 2021, the Government of Ontario announced intentions to ease internationally-trained immigrants to start careers in their profession.

If passed, the proposal will lift the requirement for Canadian work experience when applying for licenced professions such as law, accounting, architecture, engineering, electrical, or plumbing.

The province also may remove the language proficiency requirement to avoid duplication and address the labour shortage in the province, as well as help internationally-trained immigrants build better lives for themselves and their families.

Canada launched COVID-19 proof of vaccination for travel

On October 21, 2021, the Government of Canada published the details of Canada’s COVID-19 proof of vaccination for travel.

The document will let Canadians demonstrate that they are vaccinated against COVID-19 when travelling within and outside Canada.

All fully vaccinated Canadian citizens can get their proof of vaccination from their province or territory.

The Government also advised Canadians to check public health requirements of the country they travel, since the vaccination and entry requirements can be different in other countries.

Ontario demands the Federal Government to economic immigration into the province

Ontario has been calling on the Federal Government to increase the level of economic immigration into the province.

Ontario, even being the most immigrant accepting province, has a labour shortage of 290,000 people and wants 'hard working' immigrants to fill the job vacancies in various sectors.

Premier of Ontario Doug Ford wrote letter after letter about the labour shortage to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, saying the province needs more people and asked the Government to speed up Ontario's plan to recruit more new immigrants.

Study permit application volumes reach pre-pandemic levels

Canada processed and accepted more international students in 2021 and reaches pre-pandemic levels.

This year, Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) processed about 730,000 new student permit applications by August 2021, which means a 27% increase over the same period from 2019.

In 2020, due to the pandemic, the amount of new study permit applications fell by nearly half – from 847,852 applications in 2019 to just under 442,000 in 2020.

Approximately 20% of all applications in 2021 were from India as well as other major countries, including Bangladesh, Colombia, Iran, Nigeria, the Philippines, and Vietnam.
