UPDATE: From IRCC on the TR to PR initiative to transition 33,000 workers in Canada to permanent residence.

It appears IRCC will pick the eligible applicants directly. So, no application portal? See excerpt from the news release shared by IRCC today (May 04, 2026)

"Today, the Honourable Lena Metlege Diab, Minister of Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship, announced progress on the department’s one-time In-Canada Workers Initiative, as announced in Budget 2025, which accelerates the transition of up to 33,000 workers in Canada to permanent residence in 2026 and 2027. These individuals have already established strong roots in their communities and are contributing to a stronger Canadian economy.

As part of this initiative, Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) is initially accelerating eligible applications from existing inventories of work permit holders who have applied for permanent residence. These eligible workers are already supporting their smaller and rural communities’ labour and economic needs, and they

- have applied through the Provincial Nominee Program, the Atlantic Immigration Program, the community immigration pilots, the caregiver pilots or the Agri­Food Pilot; and
- have been living in smaller communities in Canada for 2 years or more

Through these criteria, IRCC will grant permanent residence to applicants across a range of in-demand sectors in rural areas and communities with labour gaps.

Progress on the In-Canada Workers Initiative is tracked on our website and will be updated monthly." - IRCC

Spring/Summer season is here, and many new immigrants and students will soon experience their first Summer in Canada 🇨🇦.

For those who have been there and done that, what’s your first advice to anyone experiencing Summer for the first time?
