Canadian immigration to provide regular access to key departmental information
Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC) will now post its most requested statistics on a quarterly basis on its website, Citizenship, Immigration and Multiculturalism Minister Jason Kenney announced.
The statistics provide current information on Canadian immigration and citizenship processes, as well as operational data on topic such as citizenship statistics and application processing times.
“We are demonstrating our commitment to transparency and open government by ensuring that our most requested data is up-to-date, easily accessible and posted in a timely manner,” said Minister Kenney.
“This will ensure that anyone who would like this data can access it for free whenever they want it, without having to make an Access to Information request.”
Mr Kenney said by sharing this information proactively on a regular basis, Canadians will have the information they need readily available.
The Canadian Visa Bureau is an independent consulting company specialising in helping people lodge their Canadian Visa with the Canadian Embassy.
