Are the number of IMP work permit holders under post-graduate employment (as at Dec 31st) a subset of and therefore captured within the total IMP work permit holders?

There are two datasets which show the number of active IMP permit holders on Dec 31st, as follows:

Canada - International Mobility Program work permit holders on December 31st...

Canada - International Mobility Work Permit Holders under Post-Graduate Employment on December 31st...

Are the Post-Graduate permits additive to or a subset of the figures provided in the former.

Thank you.

Where can I find the total permits issued annually for agricultural workers for Canada (not by Province)?

Could you please clarify why BC's data is so low in these two spreadsheets: "Canada - Temporary Foreign Worker Program work permit holders by province/territory of intended destination, intended occupation (4-digit NOC 2011) and year in which permit(s) became effective" or "Canada - Temporary Foreign Worker Program work permit holders on December 31st by province/territory of intended destination and program".

It would be useful to see the net change in permits issued vs permits expired in a given period. Aside from number of permit holders outstanding at the end of each year, I don't believe this is available for more frequent time periods. Please correct me if I am wrong.

I am trying to learn the number of Temporary Foreign Worker permits issued to fishermen in British Columbia 1990-2020. I have not been able to find this data so far on this website, because fishermen and farmers are combined. Am I missing something or did I run out of patience too soon? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I think there is a glitch on the above website as it lists “Canada - International Mobility Program work permit holders on December 31st by province/territory of intended destination and program” as a table that is available

But when I access the data it opens something else: “Canada - International Mobility Program (IMP) work permit holders by province/territory of intended destination, program and year in which permit(s) became effective, January 2015 - April 2020”

Can you please remediate this issue asap or send me a data file containing the total number of work permit holders under the IMP.

If I want the total number of Temporary Foreign Workers in Canada, do I have to add the counts in the TFW program dataset with the counts in the International Mobility Program dataset counts?

Could you please tell me the number of individuals that come to Canada on a working holiday visa annually?
To B.C.?
Do you have the data available on the country break down as well.

Hi can we get trend data (longer time series) annualised counts for TFW and those who transition to PR- eg 2001-present in one file?TFW and Iinternational mobility program components?

Thanks

Thank you very much for providing these datasets. Is there any chance of providing machine readable versions? Ideally these would be CSVs in "long" format.

Hi there,

Where can i access data that predates 2015?

I am looking for data on IMP and TFWP.

Thanks.

Hello,

Earlier this year, I requested data from IRCC on permanent residents and temporary residents admissions for 2008 to 2017 for Toronto, Ontario as the census division of intended destination.

After doing some analysis with the data, we discovered that although (generally speaking) the number of temporary residents entering Toronto has increased from 2008 to 2017 and stayed the same for permanent residents over the same time period, in 2015, an opposite effect was observed where the number of temporary residents dropped to 76,030 and permanent residents increased to 59,765.

Would you be able to tell us why this dip in temporary residents entering Toronto was observed in 2015?

Thanks!

The "Total" line by province is much lower than the aggregate numbers by program. For instance, the total for Saskatchewan in 2015 is 5,630 but if you add up the number of workers it comes to 68,245. In that year alone, however, the number of "Canadian Interests" = 16,495. Please help me understand these tables. (RE: Canada - International Mobility Program (IMP) work permit holders by province/territory of intended destination, program and year in which permit(s) became effective, January 2015 - August 2018)

Hi,

The data you've provided here suggests that only 333 live-in caregivers transitioned to permanent residency in 2010. Previous data provided by CIC in 2013 ("Facts and figures 2012 – Immigration overview: Permanent and temporary residents") stated that this number was actually 7,664. Data for all years is off by a similar margin.

Can you please help me understand this enormous discrepancy?

Thank you

Hi, I'm assuming that the number for "Agricultural workers" on table TR_0010 includes both SAWP and agricultural stream, is this correct? If so, is there another sources where these two groups are separated in the data, with annual numbers for each?

It appears that there was a drastic reduction in IEC visa holders when looking at the data by province. However, the decline is similar in scale and timing as the change in # of permits provided and unique visiters that don't mention their province (which doesn't break out users by visa or authorization type). Is there a way to break out didn't mention data by province by work authorization type/

Thanks,
Jared

Hi,
you have listed data set for IMP work permit holders provinces wise, so can you please segregate this data by country of citizenship wise also. Looking for Entrepreneur/self-employed data set.

What agreement(s) does the "Canada - Provincial/Territorial" sub-category refer to?

I just noticed that there is a typo in the "Canada - Temporary Foreign Worker Program work permit holders by gender, occupational skill level and year in which permit(s) became effective" spreadsheet in cell L4. Should be Q4 instead of Q1 .

You have listed Live-in Caregivers under the TFW Work Permit Holders, but I do not see In-Home Caregivers under the Caring for Children Pathway or the Caring for People with High Medical Needs Pathway, which also fall under the Foreign Worker program. Would you be able to incorporate these stats? Their numbers should be quite significant. Thank you kindly.

Hi, I was wondering if you could follow up with data owner on the Ontario and BC Live-in Caregiver figures in table 0011, as well as all provinces under occupation codes 4411 and 4412 in table 0009.

The numbers as they stand are too low to be accurate, unless they've been captured elsewhere.
