New rules to fast-track skilled immigrants to Canada

Nov 29, 2008

If you're planning to move to Canada, you'll have to check the list first.

Thirty-eight in-demand occupations were unveiled by the Harper government yesterday, setting out a new selection criteria for skilled immigrants, allowing those with relevant skills to be fast-tracked into the country.

The occupations include jobs in the field of health, skilled trades and the finance sector. Details of the long-awaited "ministerial  instructions" were posted on the Citizenship and Immigration Canada

website and come into effect immediately.

Skilled workers whose occupations are on the list will be fast-tracked

for acceptance as permanent residents under the skilled worker immigration class. New applications that do not meet the eligibility criteria will not be processed, and the application fee will be  refunded.

"Applicants who aren't eligible for the federal skilled worker category may qualify under another category," said Jason Kenney, minister of Citizenship, Immigration and Multiculturalism, in a release yesterday. "There are many ways to immigrate to Canada."
