As of November 30, 2024, Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) reported a total of 2,267,700 applications under processing, with 1,006,500 exceeding normal processing times, categorized as backlog.
Notably, temporary residency applications experienced the most significant reduction, decreasing by 8.82% compared to the previous month. This decline is attributed to recent policy adjustments and enhanced processing capacity. In contrast, citizenship and permanent residency applications saw modest increases in backlog, rising by 2.09% and 2.22%, respectively.
Overall, the total backlog decreased by 4.7% from October to November 2024, indicating progress in managing pending applications. However, challenges remain as IRCC continues to balance high demand with processing capacity.
