Applicants for permanent residence in Canada will face an increase in the fees necessary to process their applications starting April 30, 2024. This fee revision is partly due to the current high inflation which is influencing the economy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The new fee for reviewing the main application will be 950 $ CAN, an increase from the previous 850 $ CAN. This increase also applies to the spouse or common-law partner of the principal applicant. The fees for each dependent child will also increase, from 230 $ to 260 $ CAN. Thus, a principal applicant without children will now have to pay 1,825 $ CAN in administrative costs, without counting additional costs such as medical examinations or criminal record extracts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The right to permanent residence also sees its cost increase, going from 515 $ CAN to 575 $ CAN. These changes affect all candidates, including those in specific economic immigration programs such as federal skilled workers or those selected by Quebec.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Biometrics fees remain unchanged at 85 $ CAN per person and 170 $ CAN for families of two or more, covering required fingerprints and photographs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
These fee changes, which occur bi-annually, are designed to help cover the increasing costs of immigration program services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
For future applicants, it is essential to prepare for these new financial burdens. Here is a summary table of the new fees, for better visibility and planning:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Applicants for permanent residence in Canada will face an increase in the fees necessary to process their applications starting April 30, 2024.
