Pressbox (Press Release) - Earlier this year, the government of Canada has announced its intention to replace the current, highly contentious system of lottery-based allotment of parents and grand parents and visa and move towards a quota-based system.
The applications for the new system are expected to open at the end of this month. A social media post period is set to reopen at the end of the month. According to a spokesperson for the IRCC (Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada), a social media post conveying the same was issued around the end of the previous year.
Mr Rahman opined that politicians need to work out the details of the quota system and see how it will affect the families coming to Canada in the future. In the short term, however he suggested that the IRCC admit its lack of enough manpower to process the application in time.
There has been a huge backlog of applications which have swamped the family reunification system for many years, however with these changes the backlog may be reduced considerably.
