Canada changing immigration rules ?

The Canadian government have today launched a consultation on their immigration programme.

The official announcement seems to indicate that this may result in changes to allow more occupations to be included the Federal Skilled Worker category.

This would be a welcome move, allowing more applicants to apply directly for permanent residency without having to apply through employer sponsorship or Provincial nomination entry.

The consultation runs until April 16th, after which we hope that a new more flexible system of entry will be introduced.
