This is why the west is seeing a backlash against the TQ+.

By Amy Hamm November 10, 2024

Trans activists in British Columbia, Canada, are demanding that a law which prevents dangerous convicted criminals from changing their legal names be repealed immediately.

Social justice legal group West Coast LEAF issued a press release, signed by numerous trans activist groups and organizations, demanding the change on November 7. In their letter, the groups claim that the province’s legislation “harms those most in need of legal name changes, including transgender people, Indigenous people, and survivors of gender-based violence.”

They also state that the “name change ban interferes with the human rights of transgender people to use their chosen names.” In addition to repealing the name-change ban, the groups are also demanding greater access to name change services, and “dignity” for the transgender community.

The legislation at issue is the province’s Name Act, which was amended earlier this year in response to public outcry over child-killer Allan Schoenborn being permitted to change his legal name, followed by a failed campaign to keep his new name hidden from the public.

Schoenborn murdered his three children, aged five, eight, and 10, in 2008. While he was found guilty of first-degree, pre-meditated murder, a judge ruled he was not criminally responsible due to mental illness. Schoenborn is currently eligible for 28-day leaves from the forensics hospital where he is serving his sentence, and may eventually be released into transitional housing in the community. Schoenborn does not identify as transgender.

The 2024 amendment to the BC Name Act ensures that all persons convicted of serious violent offences, or offences against children—even if they are found not criminally responsible—cannot obtain legal name changes. The legislation was proposed by the now-defunct BC United Party, which was the official opposition to the ruling New Democratic Party, under premier David Eby.

Eby held a sizable majority government at the time, but now holds the slimmest possible majority with a strong Conservative Party opposition.

Despite the obvious safety risk posed to the public by enabling men like Schoenborn to hide behind new aliases, BC’s trans activists believe that it is more important for transgender persons with violent criminal histories to have their gender identities affirmed. 

If these activists have their way, criminals like Adam Laboucan, also known as Tara Desousa, would be able to hide their past by making quick and easy legal name changes. Laboucan, a trans-identified male and baby rapist, was the youngest criminal in Canadian history to be designated a “dangerous offender.” His crimes, which also include murdering a toddler, have been documented extensively by Reduxx. Laboucan currently resides in a female prison, with a mother-baby program, in British Columbia. Had his transfer to female prison gone unreported, it is plausible that Laboucan—if ever released from prison—would be able to enjoy anonymity and hide his violent, depraved criminal past from unsuspecting future victims. 

Adrienne Smith, a female lawyer who uses they/them pronouns, also signed on to West Coast LEAF’s demands to reverse changes to the Name Act. In a statement included in their press release, Smith wrote that, for trans-identified persons, “[o]ur chosen names are human rights… This change [to the Name Act] hurts people standing farthest from justice, because it essentially sentences trans people to permanent deadnaming. That is unlawful, and it is wrong. Everyone should be entitled to the basic dignity of a name.” 

Smith is the litigation director at CWHWC Trans Legal Clinic, a business that provides pro-bono legal services to “Two-Spirit, transgender and gender non-conforming people.” In addition to helping trans-identified persons obtain legal name changes, they also offer free hormone and surgery readiness assessments. 

Another signatory, Didi Dufresne, a female who uses he/they/she pronouns, is the director of legal services for the non-profit QMUNITY. Dufresne asserted that the amendments to the Name Act are a throwback to laws that once criminalized homosexuality. “The criminal offenses listed include charges historically used to criminalize queer sex (like gross indecent, incident acts, exposure); charges related to sex work which are constitutionally suspect, and a number of non-violent offenses like breaking and entering or trespassing at night,” Dufresne wrote.

Other signatories include the Canadian Bar Association (BC Branch), PACE Society (which receives federal and provincial government funding), the Society for Advocacy for Gender-Affirming Healthcare, and the Union of BC Indian Chiefs.

In 2019, West Coast LEAF member Devyn Cousineau presided over the BC Human Rights Tribunal Jessica Yaniv hearings, in which trans-identified Yaniv sued female estheticians for refusing to wax his testicles. Cousineau referred to the waxing of trans-identified male testicles as “critical gender affirming care.” 

Premier David Eby has not issued a public response to the demand letter

Canada to cut immigration levels in major reversal, Trudeau says (Washington Post) Canada is set to slash the number of immigrants that it welcomes, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced Thursday, in a sharp reversal for a country that bet big on immigration to boost economic prosperity and that has long cast itself as open to newcomers. The about-face comes as public opinion polls show waning support for immigration amid concerns that it is exacerbating long-standing housing shortages, pushing up rents and deepening stresses on an already overburdened health-care system. Canada is to admit 395,000 new permanent residents in 2025, a 21 percent drop from the target of 500,000 it set last year. That number will fall further to 380,000 in 2026 and 365,000 in 2027. All are below the goal of 485,000 set for this year.

Asheville Has Tap Water, but No One Knows When It Will Be Drinkable (NYT) Nearly a month after the remnants of Hurricane Helene ravaged western North Carolina, running water has now been restored to most of the region around Asheville—but you can’t drink it yet. What comes out of the tap is often yellow or brown, and while it can be used to flush toilets and take showers, it is still unsafe for human consumption. Officials have given no indication of when the water will be safe to drink again, and the reservoir that feeds the system still looks like it is filled with chocolate milk rather than pristine water. Obtaining clean water remains a daily concern for many residents, who head to disaster relief sites to bathe, do their laundry and pick up bottles of drinking water. Large canisters stocked with well water dot some neighborhoods. Many restaurants and breweries that lack a clean water source remain closed. “It’s the new normal, going around to find places to do everyday stuff,” said Lisa Nowell of Swannanoa, N.C., after she did laundry with her daughter at a disaster relief site. “It has changed life so instantly.”

Thousands of adoptees live in limbo without citizenship (AP) The 50-year-old newspaper was turning yellow and its edges fraying, so she had it laminated, not as a memento but as proof—America made a promise to her, and did not keep it. She pointed to the picture in the corner of her as a little girl in the rural Midwest, hugging the family Yorkshire terrier, with dark pigtails and brown eyes so round people called her Buttons. Next to her sit smiling, proud parents—her father an Air Force veteran who had survived a German prison camp in World War II and found her in an orphanage in Iran. She was a skinny, sickly 2-year-old; he and his wife decided in 1972 to take her home and make her their American daughter. They brought her to the United States on a tourist visa, which in the eyes of the government she soon overstayed as a toddler—and that is an offense that cannot be rectified. She is one of thousands of children adopted from abroad by American parents—many of them military service members—who were left without citizenship by loopholes in American law that Congress has been aware of for decades, yet remains unwilling to fix. She is technically living here illegally, and eligible for deportation. “My dad died thinking, ‘I raised my daughter. I did my part,’ but not knowing it put me on a path of instability and fear,” she said. “Adoption tells you: You’re an American, this is your home. But the United States doesn’t see me as an American.”

Billionaire Esteves Sounds Alarm on US Deficit, Money ‘Printer’ (Bloomberg) Billionaire Andre Esteves, the chairman of Banco BTG Pactual SA, said he’s worried about the lack of debate over the ballooning US deficit and what he sees as the excessive printing of money. The Brazilian banker compared investor concern about his own country’s fiscal situation, which has been whipsawing financial markets, with relative quiet around the situation at the US Federal Reserve. The “reality is, even if you are the owner of the printer, there is a limit to print,” he said. While the fiscal situation [in Brazil] is being discussed daily by newspapers, politicians and investors, there’s been no similar talk in the US, he said. “The difference is that we don’t own a printer and need to be more rigorous.”

Molotov cocktail explodes in a Chilean high school, injuring at least 35 (AP) A homemade firebomb exploded inside a public high school in Chile on Wednesday, igniting a blaze that injured at least 34 students and one teacher, with several in serious condition, firefighters said. A group of students ages 15 to 18 at the school in central Santiago, the capital, were making Molotov cocktails in a bathroom to be thrown at a protest later when one exploded, said police Lt. Col. Fernando Albornoz. It was not clear what caused the blast. Police said they found bottles and fuel cans likely to make the explosives.

A loneliness epidemic is spreading worldwide. Seoul is spending $327 million to stop it (CNN) In South Korea, the city authorities of Seoul have announced they will spend 451.3 billion won (around $327 million) in the next five years to “create a city where no-one is lonely.” Every year, thousands of South Koreans die alone every year, a phenomenon known as “lonely deaths” and part of a larger problem of isolation from society. The initiative will include counselors, in-person visits and consultations, more green spaces and activities to encourage people to connect. “Loneliness and isolation are not just individual problems, but tasks that society must solve together,” Seoul mayor Oh Se-hoon said in a news release. The problem of loneliness has gained national attention over the past decade as the number of related issues increased—such as young people who withdraw from the world and spend their days isolated at home, often for months at a time. The phenomenon, known by the Japanese term “hikikomori,” has become increasingly common; South Korea had up to 244,000 such recluses in 2022 by one estimate. The number of lonely deaths has also been rising—reaching 3,661 last year.

Japan’s ruling party may struggle in Sunday’s vote, but its decades of dominance won’t end (AP) Japanese Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba ‘s ruling party, dogged by corruption scandals and plunging support, faces its toughest challenge in more than a decade in Sunday’s parliamentary election. This could set up a very short-lived time in office for Ishiba, who only took power earlier this month. But even if he may have to take responsibility and step down as head of the party and prime minister, it won’t cause his Liberal Democratic Party to fall from power. That’s because the party, which has had a stranglehold on power since 1955, easily dominates a fractured, weak opposition, which has only ruled twice, and briefly, during that time. The LDP has built its juggernaut of support through a network of bureaucrats, businesses and regional leaders. While opposition parties have made inroads in cities, the LDP controls the countryside, funneling huge government subsidies to rural areas.

Storm blows away from northern Philippines leaving 65 dead but forecasters warn it may do a U-turn (AP) Tropical Storm Trami blew away from the northwestern Philippines on Friday, leaving at least 65 people dead in landslides and extensive flooding that forced authorities to scramble for more rescue boats to save thousands of terrified people, who were trapped, some on their roofs. But the onslaught may not be over: State forecasters raised the rare possibility that the storm—the 11th and one of the deadliest to hit the Philippines this year—could make a U-turn next week as it is pushed back by high-pressure winds in the South China Sea.

Israel attacks Iran in series of pre-dawn airstrikes targeting military infrastructure (AP) Israel attacked Iran with a series of pre-dawn airstrikes Saturday in what it said was a response to the barrage of ballistic missiles the Islamic Republic fired upon Israel earlier in the month. The Israeli military said its aircraft targeted facilities that Iran used to make missiles fired at Israel as well as surface-to-air missile sites. There was no immediate indication that oil or missile sites were hit—strikes that would have marked a much more serious escalation—and Israel offered no immediate damage assessment. Explosions could be heard in the Iranian capital, Tehran, though the Islamic Republic insisted they caused only “limited damage” and Iranian state-run media downplayed the attacks. Still, the strikes risk pushing the archenemies closer to all-out war at a time of spiraling violence across the Middle East, where militant groups backed by Iran—including Hamas in Gaza and Hezbollah in Lebanon—are already at war with Israel. The strikes filled the air for hours until sunrise in Iran. They marked the first time Israel’s military has openly attacked Iran, which hasn’t faced a sustained barrage of fire from a foreign enemy since its 1980s war with Iraq.

Hezbollah proving a formidable foe against Israeli forces in Lebanon (Washington Post) After a series of staggering losses, Hezbollah is putting up a stiff fight against Israeli forces in Lebanon’s south while continuing to rain down rockets across the border, underscoring the group’s resilience and the limitations of Israel’s ground campaign. When Israel sent troops across the border on Oct. 1, officials estimated military operations would last for a few weeks. More than three weeks later, officials have said they will likely need a few weeks longer, raising concerns over the kind of mission creep that has defined Israel’s past wars in Lebanon. The militant group has bounced back from its unprecedented setbacks—including the penetration of its electronic devices and the assassination of most of its senior leadership—thanks to a flexible command structure, help from Iran and years of planning for an Israeli invasion, current and former Lebanese officials said. “They are a formidable foe,” said an official with the Israel Defense Forces. The official said Hezbollah militants are better trained, more experienced after fighting in Syria and armed with more advanced weaponry than in 2006, during their last war with Israel.

In Gaza Camps Where Tents Are Now a Luxury, a Harsh Winter Looms (NYT) A year into the war in Gaza, the prices of ready-made tents and supplies to build even flimsy shelters are soaring. Warm blankets, clothes and firewood are hard to get or prohibitively expensive. Finding a vacant apartment is out of the question for most displaced civilians. And many have no income at all. So people eking out an existence in tattered tents and makeshift shelters across the enclave are bracing for a tough, rainy winter. This one, many expect, will be worse than the last. Most of the roughly two million people in Gaza have been displaced at least once by the war, compounding the hardships of a population enduring waves of Israeli bombardment and widespread lawlessness.

If you plan on flying around the country in 2025 and beyond, you might want to listen up.

You have about 365 days to make your state-issued driver’s license or identification “Real ID” compliant, per the Department of Homeland Security.  

The Real ID compliance is part of a larger act passed by Congress in 2005 to set “minimum security standards” for the distribution of identification materials, including driver’s licenses. This means that certain federal agencies, like the Transportation Security Administration or DHS, won’t be able to accept state-issued forms of identification without the Real ID seal.

It's taken a while for the compliance to stick, with DHS originally giving a 2020 deadline before pushing it back a year, then another two years and another two years after that due to “backlogged transactions” at MVD offices nationwide, according to previous USA TODAY reports.

You won’t be able to board federally regulated commercial aircraft, enter nuclear power plants, or access certain facilities if your identification documents aren’t Real ID compliant by May 7, 2025. 

Here’s what we know about Real IDs, including where to get one and why you should think about getting one.

Do I have to get a Real ID?

Not necessarily. 

If you have another form of identification that TSA accepts, there probably isn’t an immediate reason to obtain one, at least for travel purposes. But if you don’t have another form of identification and would like to travel around the country in the near future, you should try to obtain one. 

Here are all the other TSA-approved forms of identification:

◾ State-issued Enhanced Driver’s License

◾ U.S. passport

◾ U.S. passport card

◾ DHS trusted traveler cards (Global Entry, NEXUS, SENTRI, FAST)

◾ U.S. Department of Defense ID, including IDs issued to dependents

◾ Permanent resident card

◾ Border crossing card

◾ An acceptable photo ID issued by a federally recognized, Tribal Nation/Indian Tribe

◾ HSPD-12 PIV card

◾ Foreign government-issued passport

◾ Canadian provincial driver's license or Indian and Northern Affairs Canada card

◾ Transportation worker identification credential

◾ U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services Employment Authorization Card (I-766)

◾ U.S. Merchant Mariner Credential

◾ Veteran Health Identification Card (VHIC)

However, federal agencies “may only accept” state-issued driver’s licenses or identification cards that are Real ID compliant if you are trying to gain access to a federal facility. That includes TSA security checkpoints.

Enhanced driver’s licenses, only issued by Washington, Michigan, Minnesota, New York, and Vermont, are considered acceptable alternatives to REAL ID-compliant cards, according to DHS. 

What can I use my Real ID for?

For most people, it's all about boarding flights.

You can only use your Real ID card to obtain access to "nuclear power plants, access certain facilities, or board federally regulated commercial aircrafts," according to DHS.

The cards can't be used to travel across any border, whether that's Canada, Mexico, or any other international destination, according to DHS.

All you have to do to get a Real ID is to make time to head over to your local department of motor vehicles.

Every state is different, so the documents needed to verify your identity will vary. DHS says that at minimum, you will be asked to produce your full legal name, date of birth, social security number, two proofs of address of principal residence and lawful status.

The only difference between the state-issued forms of identification you have now and the Real ID-compliant card you hope to obtain is a unique marking stamped in the right-hand corner. The mark stamped on your Real ID compliant cards depends on the state.

If you want a comparison of the socialist/Marxist/Cult of Moloch that infests the Democratic Part and a free American people, consider the case of Jake Lang.

Compare that to “no bail” policies, decriminalising theft below a thousand bucks and the tens of millions of migrant beggars entering the US via Mexico and Canada.

He has been held without trial for the 1,388 days since J6, charged with:

1.      Assaulting an officer (federal charge) 2.      Civil disorder (federal charge) 3.      Obstruction of an official proceeding (initially charged, but later dismissed by a federal judge)

Jake Lang was assaulted, stripped naked and thrown into permanent solitary confinement for, somehow, taking this video of reading the bible - and then issuing this tweet:

(17) Jake Lang - January 6 Political Prisoner 🇺🇸 on X: "Last night at 10:30 pm while we were LIVE on our J6 Patriot Panel, My cell was RAIDED & I was tackled & arm twisted violently against the wall by the Brooklyn Federal Prison Correction Officers!!! They treated me like an animal & called me a Domestic Terrorist!! I was stripped https://t.co/vdOE3VEkWq" / X

Presumably, even J6 prisoners have access to cell phones? No pun intended.

There are thousands of hours of video footage for the J6 “riots”. Those have shown that on one side of the Capitol building, people were invited in by Capitol police, whilst on the other side, there are those that claim that the FBI had operatives embedded in the “crowd” and coordinated Antifa foot soldiers to use and incite violence to break in on the other side of the Capitol.

Turncoat Liz Cheney is accused of witness tampering to coach a witness to lie about what went on – the kangaroo court set up by the Democratic Party is as clear a farcical abuse of power as can be. Maybe Schiff should be held without trial for claiming TWO “prime residences” to fraudulently obtain lower interest rates and tax breaks!

"Abhinaya Yeddala's plan to become a family doctor and build a life in Nova Scotia is coming to fruition — but she says she nearly gave up and left the province because of a requirement that added more than two years to the process. 

Yeddala, originally from India, is now a family medicine resident at a clinic in New Glasgow. She completed her undergraduate degree in the United Kingdom before moving to Malaysia to begin medical school. After two years, she transferred to Dalhousie University, and became a Canadian medical graduate in 2019.

But she had to wait almost two and a half years before taking the next step in her career, thanks to a requirement now in effect in most Canadian provinces that she obtain permanent resident status before applying for her medical residency.

She said that tedious and lengthy process almost drove her away.

"It was very stressful, it was very frustrating," Yeddala said. "There was this fear of what happens if I don't get what I want in Canada, what do I do then? So a lot of uncertainty because there was no guarantee.""

If you are an Indian and plan to immigrate to Canada, then obtaining a Permanent Residency will be one of the best ways for you to start. Permanent Residence in Canada has several benefits: medical benefits are free, quality education, and you can even become a full-blooded citizen of Canada. However, for the 2025 intake, specific requirements are necessary if you want to apply for Canada PR. This guide will walk you through what's required and set you on your way to a new life in Canada.

 What is Canada PR?

Canada PR from India allows Indian citizens to reside, work, and settle in Canada and enjoys almost all the rights that a Canadian citizen possesses. Because you are a permanent resident, free healthcare, educational benefits, and legal protection will be available to you. A few years after holding PR, you may apply for Canadian citizenship.

To qualify for Canada PR one needs to pass the eligibility criteria, primarily through Canada's Express Entry system that works on three systems, which are as follows:

Federal Skilled Worker Program (FSWP)

Canadian Experience Class (CEC)

Federal Skilled Trades Worker (FSTP)

For Indian immigrants, the Federal Skilled Worker Program is liked most, though every pathway has different eligibility criteria.

Key Eligibility Requirements for Canada PR in 2025

 1. Work Experience

Work experience is one of the most important elements in your application for Canada PR. Under the Express Entry system, you must demonstrate that you have had at least one year of continuous full-time skilled work experience or its part-time equivalent in the last 10 years. The experience must be classified under Canada's National Occupational Classification (NOC) list. Ideally, jobs in TEERS 0 (management jobs), 1 (professional jobs), or 2(technical jobs) will boost your score a lot.

 2. Language Proficiency

Language proficiency in either English or French is required for every candidate. In the case of English, one needs to take IELTS test. Here, one must score at least 6 bands in every module: Reading, Writing, Speaking, and Listening. The more you score, the more you add to your Comprehensive Ranking System score. French speakers have the option of taking the TEF test to earn extra points.

 3. Education

Education is yet another qualification for you. Your education has to be checked through some authorized body and will then be verified whether it meets the requirements set up in Canada. The higher your education level, the more points score. For instance, a PhD holder scores more points than a bachelor's degree holder.

4. Arranged Employment (Optional)

While not a required component, having a valid job offer from a Canadian employer can greatly improve your chances to get issued with an ITA for PR. A valid job offer is the reason for gaining up to 10 extra points in CRS score, which will place you higher in the Express Entry pool rankings.

 5. Adaptability

This element takes into consideration how easily you can get established in Canada. Marks are given if you meet at least one of the following criteria:

Your spouse or common-law partner is eligible to come to Canada and has the language abilities CLB at level 4 or higher

You have previous work or study experience in Canada

You have blood relatives already living in Canada

You have arranged employment in Canada

All these factors can help you score as much as 10 points.

6. Canada's 67-Point System

Canada uses a points-based assessment in terms of determining eligibility for PR under the Federal Skilled Worker Program (FSWP). You must score at least 67 out of 100 points determined by key factors like age, education, language ability, work experience, arranged employment, and adaptability.

 Point Awards:

Age: up to 12 points

Education: up to 25 points

Language Skill: up to 28 points

Work Experience: Maximum 15

Adaptability: Maximum 10

Arranged Employment: Maximum 10

Am I Eligible for Canada PR?

Checking your eligibility for immigration in Canada PR is the most vital step toward your migration journey. One can get a fair idea about the factors such as age, education, work experience, and language skills in one's CRS score. These points will help applicants prepare well in advance for the process. In any system of the Express Entry program or any Provincial Nominee Program, knowing one's eligibility before registration saves ample time and effort.

If you are still in a state of confusion or want professional assistance, then contact Aptech Visa, with more than 15 years of experience in dealing with applications for Canada PR. Then, you'll be guided properly to ensure the maximum feasible chances for you.

The Provincial Nominee Program (PNP) is a powerful tool for doctors seeking permanent residency (PR) in Canada. Each Canadian province and territory manages its own PNP, allowing it to target specific professions in demand, including medical professionals. By participating in PNPs, doctors can streamline their immigration process, fill critical healthcare gaps, and establish their careers in regions that require their expertise.

1. Provincial Priority for Healthcare Professionals

Many PNPs have specific streams or categories dedicated to healthcare workers, including doctors. Provinces like Ontario, British Columbia, Saskatchewan, and Nova Scotia often have medical professions on their in-demand occupation lists. This prioritization means doctors have a higher likelihood of receiving a nomination, which accelerates their path to Canada PR.

Targeted Occupation Streams: Provinces use data on healthcare shortages to create streams specifically targeting doctors and other healthcare professionals, ensuring they meet local healthcare demands.

Direct Path to PR: A nomination from a province adds 600 CRS points to an applicant’s Express Entry Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) score, almost guaranteeing an invitation to apply for PR in subsequent Express Entry draws.

2. Aligned with Express Entry

Many PNPs are aligned with the federal Express Entry system, allowing doctors to maximize their chances for selection. Through an Express Entry-aligned PNP stream, provinces can nominate doctors directly, greatly boosting their CRS score. For those who have already submitted an Express Entry profile, a provincial nomination can effectively secure an invitation to apply for PR.

Increased CRS Points: A PNP nomination provides a substantial CRS score boost, which is especially beneficial for doctors with lower CRS scores.

Faster PR Process: Express Entry-aligned PNP streams reduce processing times for doctors, who can often expect faster application handling compared to standalone PR applications.

3. Specialized Pathways and Flexibility

Some provinces, like British Columbia and Saskatchewan, have unique healthcare-focused streams under their PNPs. These pathways cater specifically to medical professionals, making it easier for doctors to qualify even if they do not meet the exact criteria of general Express Entry streams.

Health-Specific Categories: Provinces may offer categories exclusively for healthcare workers, ensuring a streamlined application for doctors.

Job Offers and Community Support: In regions where job offers are required, PNPs facilitate connections between doctors and healthcare institutions in need, offering additional support for integration into local communities.

Conclusion

For doctors aiming for PR in Canada, the Provincial Nominee Program offers a pathway that aligns well with both career goals and immigration success. With healthcare-specific streams, high CRS boosts, and direct ties to provincial demand, PNPs provide doctors with an efficient route to Canada PR and long-term opportunities to contribute to Canada’s healthcare system.

Title: Understanding the Timeline: Receiving an Invitation from Express Entry after Applying for a Provincial Nomination

Introduction: The Express Entry system has become a popular pathway for skilled workers to obtain permanent residence in Canada. If you are considering applying for a provincial nomination through Express Entry, it's essential to understand the timeline involved in receiving an invitation. In this blog, we will explore the factors that affect the processing time and provide you with insights to manage your expectations.

Factors Affecting the Processing Time:

Province or Territory: The processing time for provincial nominations can vary depending on the province or territory. Each region has its own administrative procedures and resources, which can influence the speed at which they process nominations. For example, British Columbia is known for its relatively shorter processing times compared to other provinces like Ontario.

Demand for Skilled Workers: The demand for skilled workers in a particular province or territory also impacts the processing time. If a region is experiencing a high demand for skilled professionals in specific occupations, the processing of nominations in that area may be expedited. Conversely, if the demand is lower, it may take longer to receive an invitation.

Express Entry Profile Score: Your Express Entry profile score plays a significant role in determining the likelihood and speed of receiving an invitation. A higher profile score indicates a stronger match with the Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) requirements, increasing your chances of receiving an invitation sooner. It's crucial to continuously improve your profile score by enhancing factors such as language proficiency, education, work experience, and additional qualifications.

Managing Your Expectations: While we provide general information on processing times, it's important to note that individual cases can vary. The actual processing time depends on a variety of circumstances unique to your situation. However, here are some practical steps to help you manage your expectations:

Stay Informed: Regularly check the official websites of the province or territory that nominated you for any updates on processing times. These platforms usually provide estimated processing times and relevant information to keep you informed.

Be Patient: The processing time for nominations can range from a few weeks to several months. Patience is key during this period. Avoid unnecessary stress by acknowledging that the process takes time, and factors beyond your control can affect the timeline.

Monitor Express Entry System: Keep a close eye on the Express Entry system to check for any updates regarding your invitation. The system will notify you if you have been invited to apply for permanent residence. Stay proactive and ensure you have provided accurate and up-to-date information in your Express Entry profile.

Conclusion: Receiving an invitation from Express Entry after applying for a provincial nomination requires understanding the factors that influence the processing time. Factors such as the province or territory, demand for skilled workers, and your Express Entry profile score all play a role. By staying informed, managing expectations, and remaining patient, you can navigate through the process more effectively.

Remember, each case is unique, and there are no guarantees regarding specific timelines. If you have concerns or require further clarification, consider consulting with immigration professionals who can provide personalised advice based on your circumstances. Good luck with your Express Entry journey towards Canadian permanent residence! Read More
