Online applications for Canada permanent residence begin September 23, 2022
Beginning on September 23, 2022, IRCC will begin transitioning to 100% digital applications for most permanent residence programs. Candidates must apply online. In the event candidates are not able to apply online and require accommodations, including for a disability, they will be able to contact IRCC to request an alternative format.
Else, applications that are received after the transition dates will be returned back to candidates. IRCC will release more information on the alternative submission process in the coming days.
