The Canadian government announced a new temporary policy for certain foreign nationals under the Provincial Nominee Program.
Key Points:
Additional Information: The temporary policy allows foreign nationals to work sooner within the nomination and permanent residence process. Previously, applicants have submitted a permanent residence application and received a nomination from the province/territory before being eligible for an open work permit.
BAL Analysis: The Canadian government is hoping to support provinces and territories that are transitioning eligible temporary residents to permanent status via the Provincial Nominee programs.
