Organization: Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada
Year: 2025
Month: January
Request Number: A-2024-31234
Request Summary: Please provide the latest data at IRCC regarding the PNP allocation permitted for 2025 for various PNP programs across Canada. This can include reports, analyses, and other documents specifically discussing the number of PNP allocations that will be permitted for 2025. To streamline the request, you may narrow it down to Alberta, Ontario, and British Columbia. The date range for the requested materials can be limited to September 1, 2024, to December 20, 2024. The "Notice - Supplementary Information for the 2025-2027 Immigration Levels Plan" shows the PNP admissions target is now 55,000 for 2025, down from 110,000 in 2024, effectively halving the target. Therefore, we request data on how IRCC plans to implement this reduction, whether a 50% cut will be applied uniformly across all provinces or if other measures are in place to determine the distribution of allocations. Please exclude any cabinet confidences, items requiring consultations with PCO or DOJ, and any spreadsheet or similar data that is not directly related to the PNP allocations for 2025. If further narrowing of the scope or assistance with expediting the processing of this request is required, please let me know, as this matter significantly impacts thousands of temporary workers across Canada. Remove duplicate copies of documents and emails. Only provide the final copy or the latest draft of a document. Mark all Cabinet Confidences as non-relevant. I'm willing to narrow the scope to process my request more efficiently. Briefing notes (including annexes), Discussions/Opinions/Position Papers, Policies and directives, Reports, Presentation materials. (From 2024-09-01 to 2024-12-20)
