Silver Peak Immigration

Thank you London for another great year. Happy to be a RCIC run business.

𝐓𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐢𝐦𝐦𝐢𝐠𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐨 𝐂𝐚𝐧𝐚𝐝𝐚 𝐢𝐧 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟔? 🇨🇦✨

Here are a few key things to think about:

🍁 Stricter rules & longer processing- what worked last year might not work now
💰 Money matters – cost of living + proof of funds are higher
📄 Paperwork is king – strong proof = stronger application
🗣️ Language scores count – good English or French results can make or break an application
💼 Work experience help – Canadian experience or licensing are a huge plus
🧭 Pathway matters – Express Entry, family sponsorship, PNP… choosing right is everything

Planning early — and planning smart — makes a big difference.🍁

I heard the bells on Christmas Day
Their old, familiar carols play,
And wild and sweet
The words repeat
Of peace on earth, good-will to men!

-Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1807 –1882)

🇨🇦 Remembrance Day – November 11

Today, we honour all who have served in Canada’s Armed Forces. It’s a day to reflect on courage, duty, and service.

Did you know permanent residents can also serve and join the Canadian Armed Forces? You must be committed to becoming a Canadian citizen once eligible.

Although the number of temporary residents will be reduced to return to sustainable levels, family sponsorships (spouses, partners and children) will increase from last years target to 69,000.

Immigration Targets for Family in this Category
2026-2028 Plan: the projected target for 2026 is 69,000.
2025-2027 Plan: the projected target for 2026 was 66,500.

Although this is lower than targets presented in 2024, we are still happy to see that this increase from last year's target -suggesting the government understands the importance of this permanent residency pathway.

💙Keeping families together should remain a priority.

Starting in 2026–2027, Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) will make biometrics—fingerprints and facial recognition—mandatory for all Canadian citizenship applicants. The new policy will ensure all applicants are subject to the same identity verification process.

𝐏𝐚𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐆𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐩𝐚𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐠𝐫𝐚𝐦 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟓: Another Year, Another Disappointment for Families Hoping to Reunite

Once again, IRCC has decided to draw 2025 applicants from the old 2020 pool for the Parents and Grandparents Program (PGP). For five years now, no new Canadians or permanent residents have been allowed to submit an interest to sponsor their parents or grandparents.

And this year — the door closed altogether.

The government has paused new applications indefinitely, citing a push to reduce permanent immigration. The only option left is the super visa, which allows parents and grandparents to stay for up to 5 years at a time — but not live here. Not build lives here. Not be home.

This decision doesn’t just hurt families. It undermines Canada's commitment to keep families together. In many cultures — including those from Greece, the Philippines, Bosnia, Mexico, Nigeria, and beyond — parents aren’t “extended family.” They are a pillar of the household. They help raise grandchildren, offer stability, and often take on paid work or volunteer roles.

And despite outdated claims that elderly immigrants are a burden, research shows the opposite: they contribute economically, support working parents, and strengthen communities.

We're not asking for special treatment — just fairness.
Fairness for new Canadians who never had a chance to even apply.
Fairness for families who built their lives here, only to be told they must remain divided.
Fairness for an immigration system that claims to value family reunification but closes its doors to thousands.

Canada wants skilled immigrants to grow our economy and help with the skill gaps in our labour market — but how long can we expect people to stay when they’re told their families aren’t welcome?

It’s time to rethink what “family” means — and who gets to be included.

We live in unusual times. Whether driven by personal values or long-term planning, more Americans are looking north and asking: Could Canada be an option?

Canada’s immigration programs are open to people from all over the world. But what many don’t realize is that the majority of new permanent residents are selected through the economic class. That means Canada isn’t just asking if someone wants to live here—it’s assessing whether their skills align with the country’s long-term goals.

Applicants are evaluated on factors like:
✅ Age
✅ Education
✅ English or French language skills
✅ Work experience

Multiple factors are scored, you are assigned this number and applicants compete in a global pool. It’s a merit-based system, designed to support Canada’s labour market and people are selected for their ability to contribute to our economy

So yes, Canada is open—but getting here requires more than just interest. If you’re seriously considering a move, understanding how this system works is a good place to start.
