Canada Introduced New Pathway to Apply for PR

Living and working in Canada is a single dream which is shared by many. Are you also one of those who want to immigrate and live in Canada permanently?

If so, then you have landed on the right page!

Recently, Canada has launched a new immigration pathway that eases the process of applying for permanent residency. This newly launched program is like an introduction to a brand-new bridge– a stronger and easier way to reach Canada. 

This new pathway is known as a Rural Community Immigration Pilot (RCIP). IRCC, along with this introduction, has also announced the communities that choose to participate in this program. 

But why introduce this new pathway when there are already many pathways out there?

This RCIP primarily targets the following foreign nationals:

1. Immigrants who can help fulfill the labour shortage demand in the rural communities area in Canada.
2. Immigrants who want to live and work in Canada for the long term.    

Selected Communities: 

Now, let’s talk about the communities that are selected to participate in this newly launched program!

Immigration, Refugee and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) announced the selected 14 communities to participate in the pilot on January 30, 2025. 

Let’s take a look!

It is important to note that each of these communities will be represented by a local economic development organization– that works with IRCC and identify labour gaps, nominates trustworthy employees, and recommends candidates to IRCC for permanent residents.
