According to the latest data released by the Canadian Immigration Department on the morning of July 13, Canada welcomed 17,100 new permanent residents in May 2021.
In the first 5 months of 2021, Canada accepted a total of more than 108,000 new immigrants.
It received 24,680 in January, 23,395 in February, 22,425 in March, and 21,155 in April.
But this is still far from achieving the goals outlined in its 2021-2023 immigration plan.
As we all know, since the impact of the epidemic, many approved immigrants have not been able to enter Canada. Therefore, Canada has not reached the three-year immigration quota target in 2020 and decided to make up for this loss in 2021.

Efforts of the Immigration Department
Recently, Federal Minister of Immigration Marco Mendicino held a press conference in Surrey, BC, and officially announced the latest actions of the Parent and Grandparent Program (PGP) in 2021——< strong>30 thousand candidates will be invited to apply to sponsor their parents and grandparents to immigrate!
This is the most time in history.
Mendicino said that the 30,000 places that will be opened this year will be drawn among the candidates who have submitted the guarantee intent form in 2020 to determine the final inviter.
According to the latest news, this draw will be held in the week of September 20, 2021 Invitations will be sent successively in the next 2 weeks, and the invitees need to submit application materials to the Canadian government within 60 days.
According to the proportion of the first round of invitations, the invitation rate at the beginning of 2021 is about 7% to 8%, the number of people drawn in September It was three times that of the beginning of the year, and the chance of being invited has greatly increased.
The Department of Immigration predicts that the number of new immigrants to Canada is expected to increase significantly in the second half of 2021!

Social Welfare Security
The federal government announced on July 20 that the Canadian Child Benefit (commonly known as Milk Benefit, CCB) will be raised again, The annual benefit for a child under 6 years old can be up to $6,833.
And families with children between the ages of 6 and 17 will be able to claim up to $5,765 for each child.
Canadian Minister of Family and Children (Ahmed Hussen) said that compared to when the child welfare fund was first introduced five years ago, the milk money each child can receive has increased.$350.
The purpose of this monthly tax-exempt child benefit is to "provide more support to those most in need and help pay for the cost of raising children under 18."
The government also stated that the purpose of increasing welfare payments is to "cope with the rising cost of living."
Although the increase in milk gold this time is not large, during the epidemic, eligible families can still be children under 6 years old Receive an additional $1200 Child Care Grant.
Special attention: Families who meet the conditions and have applied for milk allowance will automatically receive this subsidy, no additional application is required!
Calculating this way, if there are children under the age of 6 in the family, you can receive the highest this year$6,833 + $1,200 = $8,033 . It's also a lot of money!
I believe that after an epidemic, everyone has already seen the “wealth and wealth” of the Canadian government in issuing emergency subsidies for the epidemic.
In fact, under normal circumstances, the social benefits that Canadians can enjoy are no worse than the epidemic subsidy.
It can be summed up in one sentence: Almost all the expenses of a person's birth, old age, sickness and death are covered by the state!
It is now the hottest stage of "New Million Immigration Program" in Canada, and the Canadian government is even more In a gesture of strong welcome, an endless stream of favorable policies have been introduced for the introduction of new immigrants. If you have the intention of immigrating to Canada, you must hurry up and seize the opportunity!
