This does not represent a decline in the actual number of Chinese immigrating. Rather, it reflects a dramatic increase in the number of Filipinos and Indians that are having their applications for permanent residence approved.
Using the data received from CIC, it shows the top 10 source countries for immigrants from January 1 – June 30 in 2009, and compares it with the same time period for 2010.
2009 (Jan 1 – June 30) 2010 (Jan 1 – June 30)
Country # of Immigrants Country # of Immigrants
China 14,503 Philippines 17,474
Philippines 14,426 India 15,656
India 13,410 China 15,051
United States 4,742 United Kingdom 5,031
United Kingdom 4,545 United States 4,824
France 3,608 France 3,336
Pakistan 3,132 United Arab Emirates 3,176
Iran 2,737 Columbia 2,874
Republic of Korea 2,443 Republic of Korea 2,839
Germany 2,219 Morocco 2,697
While the decline of China as a source country of immigrants relative to the Philippines and India is notable, it is also interesting to note that most of the top 10 source countries saw their absolute numbers increase. The notable exception is Pakistan, which saw the number of people obtaining permanent residence in Canada dropping from 3,132 to 2,628, a decline of almost 25%.
There have been e-mails circulating amongst the immigration-lawyer community as to why this is, which will be the subject of a future post

Most probably, they have blocked 99% of the files due to transition of applications from islamabad to london office. Even being a fast track applicant, I am waiting for my medical forms since July 14th 2009. If you visit "pakistan application forum" thread on this website. you would find everyone waiting. If we email them, all we get is just a standard template reply to inquire after october 2010 as they are busy in transition of applications. May God help us |
