News & Life
A summary of recent announcements and their concrete effect on files in progress.
The main announcements
Each announcement is summarized here in two sentences with a link to the official source, as they are confirmed. Always verify on the IRCC or Québec ministry website before acting on any news.
What it changes for you
Policy changes rarely apply the same way to every file: your status, your dates and your program all matter. When in doubt about your own case, ask before you move.
What does not change
The rules on authorized representatives remain the same: only a person registered with a recognized professional body may be paid to advise or represent you.
