Primary drivers for surge

The surge has happened due to the following two drivers

  • Temporary to permanent resident
  • Ottawa commitment to refugees

For temporary to permanent residents, people started sending applications in 2021 and new arrivals were seen in 2021 and in 2022 also. This led to the increase in the number of permanent residents. Under the Ottawa levels plan, Canada has plans to invite 32,000 permanent residents this year.

In the case of Ottawa commitment to refugees, Ottawa has invited people from Afghanistan and Ukraine. In the first quarter, Canada has invited 16,465 candidates to Canada. The table below will show the number of refugees invited in the first quarter of 2020, 2021, and 2022:
