On November 25, Canada’s Immigration Minister, Marc Miller, announced that additional reforms to Canada’s immigration and asylum systems would be proposed in the coming weeks.

In October, the federal government released its 2025-2027 Immigration Plan, which revealed a reduction in overall immigration targets by about 20% compared to figures announced in 2023.

Under this plan:

• Canada is expected to see a 0.2% population decline in 2025 and 2026,
• Followed by a 0.8% population growth in 2027.

The reduction reflects efforts to lower the share of temporary residents in Canada’s total population from 7% to 5% by the end of 2026. Considering measures announced last year to reduce the temporary resident population:

• Canada’s temporary population is expected to decrease by:
  ︎ 445,901 in 2025
  ︎ 445,662 in 2026
• And increase by 17,439 in 2027.

Marc Miller also highlighted inefficiencies in the current asylum and refugee processing system.

• The average processing time for refugee and asylum applications is 44 months.
• As of September, there were 250,000 pending applications, and only 48,000 applications have been processed since January 2024.

“Becoming a permanent resident is not a right. Becoming a Canadian citizen is not a right.”
– Marc Miller, Immigration Minister of Canada

Miller further mentioned that 40% of new permanent residents will be selected from people already residing in Canada. This aligns with the government’s prior announcement of a focus on temporary residents already in the country, offering good news for those currently living in Canada.

Now is the time to act! Preparing your language tests and creating an Express Entry profile quickly is essential to staying ahead.

Are you considering studying in Canada? Whether you’re looking for a high-quality education, a multicultural environment, or the chance to work and live in one of the world’s most beautiful countries, Canada is an excellent choice. In today’s blog, we’ll dive into some useful tips to help you succeed in your educational journey in Canada, all while showcasing how NohProblem Consulting can support you every step of the way.

Why Study in Canada?

Canada is not just known for its vast natural beauty; it’s also home to some of the world’s best educational institutions. From prestigious universities to specialized colleges, Canada offers a wide variety of programs and degrees to fit every student’s needs. More importantly, the Canadian education system is student-centered, focusing on offering flexibility, diversity, and a safe, welcoming atmosphere for international students.

But studying in Canada isn’t just about academics—it’s also about gaining exposure to a global community, experiencing different cultures, and fostering connections that will last a lifetime. And of course, many students who graduate in Canada choose to make it their permanent home, thanks to pathways like the Post-Graduation Work Permit (PGWP), which allows graduates to stay in Canada and gain work experience.

Steps to Prepare for Studying in Canada

Planning to study abroad is an exciting but detailed process. Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you stay organized:

1. Research Your Program and School
   Before applying, make sure you fully understand the programs, institutions, and the qualifications you need to meet. Canada offers a wide range of options, from undergraduate degrees to postgraduate diplomas, and each has its unique requirements.
2. Language Proficiency Tests
   A key part of studying in Canada is proving your English or French proficiency. Standardized tests like IELTS, TOEFL, CELPIP, and even online options like Duolingo are essential for university admissions. With the right preparation, you can ace these tests and increase your chances of acceptance.
3. Apply for a Study Permit
   Once you’ve been accepted by a recognized educational institution, you’ll need a study permit to begin your studies in Canada. The process can be complicated, but with the right guidance, it can be smooth and stress-free.
4. Plan Your Finances
   Studying abroad requires financial preparation. Tuition fees, living expenses, and travel costs can add up, so it’s essential to have a solid financial plan. Canada also offers scholarships and work-study options for international students.
5. Prepare for Life in Canada
   Canada’s diverse cities offer a mix of cultures and lifestyles, and each region has its unique vibe. Whether you’re heading to vibrant Toronto, historic Montreal, or the natural beauty of Vancouver, make sure you’re prepared for the climate, culture, and lifestyle.

Strategies for Improving Your Language Skills

A vital part of adapting to life in Canada is improving your language proficiency. English is the primary language in most Canadian institutions, so enhancing your English skills is crucial. Make use of practice tests, language exchange programs, and online resources to prepare for your exams. NohProblem Consulting is here to help you navigate this journey, providing guidance and resources to help you succeed.

Work and Immigration Opportunities

As an international student, you don’t just get the chance to study; you also have opportunities to work while studying. In fact, after you graduate, Canada offers several pathways for international students to stay and work, including the Post-Graduation Work Permit (PGWP). This opens doors to full-time work experience, which can be a great stepping stone to permanent residency in Canada.

At NohProblem Consulting, we specialize in helping students transition from study to work and beyond. We’ve helped countless students gain work permits, apply for permanent residency, and make their Canadian dreams come true.

Why Choose NohProblem Consulting?

Today, we will take a look at Canada’s newly announced 2025-2027 plan for temporary residents and immigrants over the next three years.

Canada’s 2025-2027 Temporary Resident Plan

Earlier, Canada announced a 10% reduction in the number of international students by 2025 compared to 2024. It also aims to maintain similar numbers for 2026 and 2027. Through this temporary resident plan, Canada aims to reduce the proportion of temporary residents in the total population from 7% to 5% by 2026.

Canada’s 2025-2027 Immigration Plan

Recently, Canada has reflected the concerns of its citizens regarding the continuous increase in immigration. As a result, it announced a reduction in the number of new immigrants for the 2025-2027 period. This decision aims to ease housing and social service pressures caused by rapid population growth, ensuring a more sustainable population increase. The revised target numbers for new immigrants are as follows:

This shows a 21% reduction from the 2023 target for new immigrants.

Reduction in the Number of Temporary Residents

The number of temporary residents will also be adjusted, with efforts to reduce their proportion in the total population from 7% to 5% by the end of 2026. Canada announced in September and last year that this reduction is necessary for the upcoming years. Compared to last year, the number of temporary residents in Canada is expected to decrease gradually:

In 2025, a decrease of 445,901
In 2026, a decrease of 445,66
In 2027, an increase of 17,439 ▲

It is anticipated that over 40% of the 2025 immigration plan will focus on granting permanent residency to those who are already in Canada as students or workers. The government aims to support their transition to permanent residency status.

Long-Term Economic Growth

The goal of this immigration plan is to achieve long-term economic growth in Canada. Accordingly, the government is focused on increasing the proportion of economic immigrants, particularly in sectors such as healthcare and trade skills. By 2027, it is expected that 61.7% of economic immigrants will be skilled workers in these sectors.

French-Speaking Applicants

The immigration plan includes a focus on increasing the number of French-speaking immigrants:

8.5% in 2025
9.5% in 2026
10% in 2027

This is higher than the targets set in the 2024-2026 immigration plan, which aimed to increase the proportion of French speakers from 7% to 8%.

Detailed information on Canada’s 2025-2027 immigration plan can be found below through related images.

Canada’s population has increased over the past few years, reaching 41 million in 2024, and 98% of the population growth in 2023 was due to immigration. This new immigration plan anticipates a slight decrease of 0.2% in population growth in 2025 and 2026, followed by a return to 0.8% growth in 2027.

Today, we reviewed Canada’s newly announced 2025-2027 plan for temporary residents and immigrants.

While it is true that the overall number of immigrants will decrease, this plan seems to be more favorable for those who are already living in Canada as temporary residents and engaged in economic activities. It may not impact those who are currently preparing for immigration from abroad, such as from Korea, as much. Additionally, the existing permanent residency streams will not disappear.

As immigration and temporary resident restrictions tighten, we highly recommend preparing your immigration plan with a reliable immigration agency like NohProblem. By doing so, you can increase your chances of success. At NohProblem Consulting, we are committed to transparent and honest guidance, especially since the company was founded by someone who was once scammed by another agency during their own study abroad process. We aim to be a trustworthy and ethical partner throughout your immigration journey.

Unlike other companies that burden clients with high fees and unclear processes, NohProblem Consulting is committed to personalized, results-oriented solutions, helping thousands of people from around the world achieve their dreams of moving to Canada.

Why NohProblem Consulting Stands Out

At NohProblem Consulting, we believe in doing things differently. While many immigration firms rely on sales teams to handle sensitive documents, we keep things professional and secure by separating responsibilities. Our dedicated administrative team handles all documentation, and we go the extra mile with four rounds of cross-checking to ensure every detail is perfect. This rigorous process reduces errors and increases your chances of a successful application—something few firms can match.

We also recognize that immigration doesn’t sleep, and neither do we. Our services are available 24/7, allowing us to support clients across different time zones and urgent needs at any time. Whether you have a question or an urgent concern, our team is always ready to assist.

Personalized Service, Expert Guidance

Our commitment to personalized service is driven by our desire to build lasting relationships with our clients. Every case is unique, and we treat it with the care it deserves, ensuring that you receive honest advice, expert guidance, and a clear roadmap to success.

Today, we’re going to discuss the 2025-2027 Canadian Immigration Plan announced on the 24th.

Shall we dive in?

Today, the Canadian government unveiled its 2025-2027 immigration levels plan. Each year, Canada announces its immigration plan for the next three years at the end of the year. This year’s numbers for 2025-2027 show a roughly 20% reduction compared to the figures announced in 2023, indicating a policy aimed at reducing overall immigration numbers. The announced figures are as follows:

According to the plan, Canada expects a 0.2% population decrease in 2025 and 2026, followed by a return to 0.8% population growth in 2027.

The Immigration Department explained that this reduction is an effort to lower the proportion of temporary residents in the overall Canadian population from 7% to 5% by the end of 2026. Considering the temporary resident reduction measures announced in September and last year, Canada’s temporary population is expected to decrease over the next few years.

︎ 2025: A decrease of 445,901
︎ 2026: A decrease of 445,662
︎ 2027: An increase of 17,439

Recent discussions in Canada highlight that an overly aggressive immigration policy has been linked to rising housing prices and unemployment rates. Following the COVID-19 pandemic, interest rates have surged, placing a heavy mortgage burden on Canadians. The influx of immigrants has driven up housing demand, exacerbating the housing shortage. Additionally, the inflow of relatively inexpensive labor has contributed to a rise in youth unemployment and increased pressure on public services.

The reduction in immigration numbers appears to be a measure to protect Canadian citizens from these issues. The government stated, “This shows the end of the pandemic era when temporary resident criteria were relaxed to fill labor shortages.”

That’s the summary of Canada’s immigration plan for the next three years.

While overall immigration numbers are being reduced, Canada will continue to welcome immigrants. Permanent residency streams already in place won’t disappear. However, as immigration policies and temporary resident restrictions become stricter, it’s recommended to work with a trustworthy immigration firm like NohProblem to increase your chances of success in preparing your immigration plan.

NohProblem Consulting was founded out of frustration after being scammed by a study abroad agency and witnessing the unfair practices of some visa service providers. Our company’s foundation is built on the goal of operating with transparency and honesty, more than anyone else.

At NohProblem Consulting, we understand these concerns. Founded by Lisa Noh in 2017, our company was created to provide a transparent, affordable, and compassionate approach to Canadian immigration services. With over 2,000 LMIA cases and a 97% approval rate, NohProblem Consulting has been at the forefront of helping clients secure their LMIA approvals despite the evolving regulations.

Countless Success Stories: Proof of Reliability

While many are understandably worried about their LMIA status in the face of these new restrictions, NohProblem Consulting continues to publish numerous success stories, demonstrating our reliability and expertise. Our clients have consistently experienced smooth and successful LMIA applications, even under the current regulatory pressures.

One recent example of this success can be seen in Cali’s testimonial, which highlights her journey to LMIA approval. You can watch her full story on our YouTube channel here. In the video, Cali shares the challenges she faced in finding a reliable employer willing to support an LMIA application. Her story underscores the importance of working with an employer who understands the LMIA process and is committed to supporting foreign workers. Through NohProblem Consulting’s guidance, Cali was able to secure an LMIA-supported position, making her a standout candidate.

Cali’s success story mirrors the experiences of many other foreign nationals who appreciate the seamless LMIA process when working with NohProblem Consulting. As she explains in the video, finding a supportive employer is just one part of the equation—having expert guidance through the LMIA paperwork and approval process is critical to success.

Why NohProblem Consulting Stands Out

NohProblem Consulting was founded with a clear mission: to help people navigate the complexities of studying and immigrating to Canada without the overwhelming fees or frustrating delays often found in this industry.

Today, we will be discussing a new bill announced by Quebec’s immigration department on October 9th.

Before diving into the details of the new bill, let’s first take a look at Quebec’s Regular Skilled Worker Program (PRTQ).

Introduction to Quebec’s Regular Skilled Worker Program (PRTQ)

PRTQ stands for Programme régulier des travailleurs qualifiés, or in English, the Regular Skilled Worker Program.

If a candidate meets the minimum score required on the grid set by Quebec Immigration, they can receive a Quebec Selection Certificate (CSQ) and apply for Canadian permanent residency. Particularly, candidates with a job offer from outside the Greater Montreal area are more likely to be selected.

To immigrate through this program, applicants must first register their Arrima profile and submit an Expression of Interest (EOI). Quebec evaluates candidates based on several factors, including:

Age
Education
Language proficiency
Work experience
Family composition
Job offer

Candidates can earn significantly higher points for French proficiency compared to English in the Regular Skilled Worker Program’s scoring system.

Quebec will issue invitations to the highest-ranking candidates in the pool. Once selected, Quebec provides the candidate with a Quebec Selection Certificate (CSQ), which allows them to apply for Canadian permanent residency through the federal government. After receiving the CSQ, candidates can proceed to apply for Canadian permanent residency.

Quebec’s New Nationality-Based Quota Bill

On October 9th, a new bill was announced that ensures, during each draw for Quebec’s skilled worker program, no single country’s citizens can comprise more than 25% of the selected candidates for CSQ invitations.

This bill can remain in effect for up to two years, with the current duration set from October 9, 2024, to October 9, 2025. The goal of this law is to maintain diversity among immigrants.

The Importance of Implementing Nationality-Based Quotas in Quebec

This new law is expected to influence Canadian immigration policies on a broader scale. In the past, other provinces have followed Quebec’s lead in implementing changes to immigration or visa policies.

For instance, Quebec was the first to implement the suspension of low-wage LMIA applications in Montreal in August, which has significantly disrupted many immigration plans.

Quebec also recently announced changes to the Post-Graduation Work Permit (PGWP) program, prioritizing university graduates (bachelor’s, master’s, PhD) over college graduates. This has impacted many international students, as Quebec has a higher proportion of university students.

Similarly, Alberta’s AAIP appears to be following Quebec’s lead by awarding additional points for job offers outside major cities and holding more frequent draws for those in rural areas.

So far, Quebec has played a pioneering role in introducing new immigration policies.

We anticipate that this new nationality-based quota system will also have an impact on the overall direction of Canadian immigration in the future.

That was a brief overview of Quebec’s nationality-based quota system for the skilled worker immigration program.

As immigration policies continue to change, prepare for Canadian immigration with the help of a Canadian immigration expert.

NohProblem Consulting was founded after experiencing fraud from a study abroad agency and feeling outraged by the unethical practices of several visa agencies. As a result, we strive to operate with transparency and honesty more than anyone else.
