A great many new Canadians will land through Canada's different movement programs during the new decade and a few expected approach updates will make ready in 2020.
By March, Canada’s new Minister of Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship, Marco Mendicino, should be in a position to table the 2019 Annual Report to Parliament on Immigration. The report is usually released by November 1 each year, but this was delayed because of the federal election on October 21.
This report is significant because it provides insight into the federal government’s immigration priorities. Perhaps its most notable aspect will be Canada’s 2020-2022 Immigration Levels Plan. We already know the federal government’s immigration targets for 2020 (341,000 newcomers) and 2021 (350,000 newcomers). As outlined in Minister Mendicino’s Mandate Letter, we should expect a modest increase to the 2022 target that, based on current trends, could be in the neighborhood of 360,000 immigrants.
Here's a glance at a portion of the remarkable advancements that we can expect throughout the following a year both in Canada and past that could help shape the eventual fate of Canadian movement strategy.

Parents and Grandparents Program changes expected by April at the latest
It is expected that the federal government will announce their intake process plans for the Parents and Grandparents Program (PGP) by April 2020 at the latest. While the federal government has an annual target of welcoming about 21,000 immigrants under the PGP, managing the intake process has proven challenging for many years now given demand far exceeds the supply of available immigration spots. It is likely the federal government will roll out a new process that seeks to avoid previous intake process shortcomings.
Ottawa’s commitment to regionalization is undeniable
Under the 2019-2021 Movement Levels Plan, Canada will hope to invite 67,800 workers (head candidates, mates, and wards) through the Common Chosen one Program (PNP) in the following year, which is an expansion of 11 percent contrasted and 2019.
Not exclusively are areas and domains trying to pull in more settlers through the PNP, yet they are likewise hoping to control a greater amount of them past their greatest urban communities. Most areas and regions see in any event 80 percent of their migrants settle in the biggest districts, which comes to the detriment of endeavors to advance financial improvement in littler urban areas and country networks. To counter this, various areas and domains have presented provincial PNP streams. For example, Ontario as of late chose three networks to partake in its new Provincial Migration Pilot.
The federal government is complementing the PNP with additional efforts to promote a broader distribution of immigrants across Canada (a policy known as “regionalization”).
In 2017, it launched the Atlantic Immigration Pilot, which has enabled the four Atlantic provinces of Newfoundland and Labrador, Prince Edward Island, Nova Scotia, and New Brunswick to welcome more than 4,000 more immigrants. Based on the minister’s Mandate Letter, we can expect the AIP to become a permanent program in short order.
In 2019, the government propelled the Country and Northern Movement Pilot (RNIP) that will increase in 2020 as 11 assigned networks crosswise over Canada start to enroll newcomers through the pilot.
The minister’s mandate also entails the launch of a new Municipal Nominee Program. Details are not yet available, but it is reasonable to expect it to operate in a similar fashion to the RNIP whereby designated municipalities will be able to recruit newcomers who meet their labour market needs. The mandate also indicates the federal government will launch an additional pilot to promote more immigration to rural communities.
An imperative perception in regards to these different projects is the national government has now picked to give areas, regions, and networks crosswise over Canada with a little more than 50 percent of Monetary Class determination powers. This is an ongoing improvement and underscores the government's duty to guaranteeing the advantages of migration are spread all the more impartially the nation over.
Over the last few years, Economic Class selection powers have been split 50-50. Prior to the launch of the PNP in 1998, the federal government selected nearly 90 per cent of all economic class immigrants to Canada, with Quebec selecting the remaining 10 percent.
Will citizenship expenses be postponed in 2020?
Dispensing with citizenship expenses is likewise part of Mendicino's Order Letter. The present expense of turning into a resident is $630 per grown-up, which some have contended is restrictively high for low-salary people and families. It is obscure when the expenses will be postponed, yet we can expect the citizenship take-up rate to briefly stagnate or decrease as qualified migrants settle on the sound choice to trust that this arrangement will be executed. At the point when it comes into impact, citizenship rates could increment by around 40 percent by 2024.
Watch out for Great Britain and the United States
Unmistakably 2020 will be one more astounding year in Canada's migration framework.
Notwithstanding government just as PNP advancements, we can anticipate that Quebec should keep on improving its movement programs—for example, in late 2019, the area reported significant changes to its well known Quebec Experience Program (which it at that point switched) and Quebec Migrant Financial specialist Program.
We should also be mindful of immigration policy developments outside of Canada.
Once Britain finalizes its Brexit agreement with the European Union, its majority Conservative government may look to launch a new economic class points system that competes with Canada.
In addition, all eyes will be on the November 2020 United States presidential and congressional elections, which will certainly impact Canada in a number of ways.
Canada is hoping to modernize its 2002 Safe Third Nation Understanding (STCA) with the U.S. for overseeing haven claims. Since 2017, somewhere in the range of 50,000 individuals have utilized a proviso in the STCA by intersection into Canada to guarantee refuge through outskirt intersections not secured by the understanding. Canada may need to hold up until after the races to seek after its modernization motivation.
Besides, a Republican or Popularity based greater part over the White House, Place of Agents, and Senate could make ready for the US to actualize changes, for example, the dispatch of extra financial class pathways, which could likewise prompt increasingly fiery challenge for Canada. President Trump has frequently refered to Canada for instance of how he needs the US to invite financial class foreigners yet his organization has needed adequate congressional help to make Canada-like changes.
This to state, movement strategy is constantly global in nature, and issues outside Canada's ability to control including south of the outskirt and over the Atlantic Sea will affect Canada past 2020.
