Permanent residency pathways
EMBRACING COMPASSION:
NAVIGATING HUMANITARIAN & COMPASSIONATE PATHWAYS
Canada is known for its welcoming immigration policies, and one such compassionate path is through Humanitarian and Compassionate (H&C) grounds. This special provision allows people who may not meet the regular immigration requirements to apply for permanent residency based on unique, compassionate reasons.
In 2023, Canada is looking to welcome a total of 92,290 refugees and newcomers on “humanitarian and compassionate grounds” (19.8% of Canada’s total 2023 immigration target). The following year, Canada aims to welcome 89,865 combined immigrants under these two categories (18.5% of the total immigration target for 2024).
