Results of Provincial Immigration Programs for September 2021

More than 80,000 immigrants are expected to arrive through provincial programs by 2023.

Provincial immigration programs are a good chance for immigrants to move to Canada. And often the requirements for applicants in them are adapted to the specifics of the province. This means they are a great way to immigrate for people who do not fit the strict requirements of the federal immigration program.
