2023 New Application Process for Home Child Care Provider and Home Support Worker Pilot

As part of efforts to modernize Canada’s immigration system and improve client service, Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) is transitioning to 100% online applications for most permanent immigration programs.

Since March 31, 2021, some clients have been able to apply online for permanent immigration programs through the Permanent Residence Portal. This online option gives clients more flexibility to apply from their devices and allows them to receive immediate confirmation that they have successfully submitted their application. The portal has been expanded and is currently open to most permanent residence program applicants.
