New Announcement: Here's how the Canadian Government plans to reduce immigration delays.
Now recently Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced in his latest statement that he has set up a new task force to reform government services. The purpose of this force is to improve the processing times of immigration applications and passports and to make recommendations for improving social services.
All this information was given through a news release. In his speech, the Prime Minister emphasized that delays in processing immigration applications and passports are unacceptable and that the Government of Canada is working swiftly to resolve them as quickly as possible.
This task force consists of a committee of 10 federal ministers and will review service delivery, and identify gaps and areas for improvement. In addition, they will provide tips to ensure that Canadians receive high-quality service. In addition, members from IRCC, Transport, and Community Development will serve as ex-officio members of this new task force.
The task of this task force is to improve the processing time of immigration applications and passports by identifying priority areas for action.
Determine long-term and short-term solutions for better improvement with a focus on reducing wait times and eliminating immigration and passport backlogs.
Air travel is being delayed due to increasing labor shortages and the committee will monitor the situation at Canadian airports. They will also focus on improving the overall quality of services provided to Canadians.
Canada’s immigration backlog is over 2 million applicants
Canada's immigration backlog stands at over 2 million people, according to the latest June 6 survey.In addition, there is a long wait for a Canadian passport across Canada.Some high-volume passport offices also refer to waiting times of 6 hours and 30 minutes. Additionally, Canadians are waiting for their turn outside these passport offices at 4 a.m.
Liberals have long been facing criticism in the House of Commons over immigration backlogs and delays in passport processing. lately, to make Canadians aware of passport wait times, the Fed even started updating wait times at Passport and Service Canada offices to three times a day so people can plan accordingly. But, this was just a bar for Canadians to plan their travels, not a permanent solution to the problem.
The federal government has been announcing new measures from time to time to accelerate processing.But, they are not efficient in reducing the backlog and waiting time in processing.Files seem to be piling up with increasing demand for these services after the pandemic, said Justin Trudeau.
It is expected that this new task force will find a sustainable and stable solution to deal with the processing crisis in the coming days.
We know that delays in service, so many in recent months, are unacceptable. We will continue to make every effort to improve the delivery of these services in an efficient and timely manner, and this new task force will help guide the government's work to better meet the changing needs of the Canadian people and will continue to provide them. They need and deserve high-quality services.
