The total number of people granted permanent resident status in Canada by immigration category (permanent residents): family class, economic immigrants, refugees, other immigrants and category not stated; and the total number of Temporary Foreign Worker work permit holders, International Mobility Program work permit holders, foreign students and humanitarian population; and an overview of permanent and temporary residence, passport and Permanent Resident Card applications received and processed by the CIC Operational Network as a whole (all of CIC's Points of Service, in Canada and overseas), with totals for applications received, network outcomes (withdrawn applications and positive or negative decisions regarding applicant eligibility and admissibility) and the total number of authorizations and visas issued for permanent residents. Note that prior to December 31, 2015, processing times for many of our services were displayed by visa office. This was useful when applications for permanent or temporary residence were always processed by the nearest visa office. However, we now have the ability to move applications around our global network to ensure they are processed as efficiently as possible. This means applications may not be processed at the office closest to where the applicant lives. As a result, only overall processing information is now being reported.
