GCMS nots from December for last update saying that my file reviewed & outstanding for final decision and security in process for PA. And of Couse my Officer is in Winnipeg.
@Miss bee Hi dear, I have an urgent question. My application is still in processing. And in between that time, I changed my address two months ago. I got Portal 1 request last week and gave my new address there. I'm worried if I had to inform IRCC about the change if address right away or is it fine that I have entered my new address in Portal 1. Please help!!!
Hi Agg, I recently received the same note in my CBSA record. I wonder have you experienced security screening? what was the next step/update after you seen this note? thank you!
Well, I guess I applied it wrong then. it's been 6 weeks and still haven't received it.
Provincial Allocations – Who’s Negotiating & Receiving More?
- New Brunswick successfully negotiated an additional 1,500 nomination spots, bringing its 2025 PNP total to 4,250—even surpassing BC’s limit of 4,000 immigrationnewscanada.ca+15cicnews.com+15soscip.org+15. They agreed to welcome asylum claimants in exchange.
- Newfoundland & Labrador also regained spots earlier in 2025, raising their total to 2,525 aaracanada.com+7cicnews.com+7immicalculator.com+7.
- Other provinces, including Ontario and Saskatchewan, are also actively lobbying IRCC to restore or partially restore cuts to their PNP quotas .
What This Means for BC
- BC’s budget remains at 4,000 nominations in 2025, down from 8,000 cicnews.com+8welcomebc.ca+8cicnewsupdate.com+8.
- Unlike NB or Newfoundland, BC has not (yet) renegotiated to regain additional spots.
- BC has redirected its limited quota to backlogged applications, high‑economic‑impact roles, and essential sectors like healthcare and entrepreneurship cicnews.com+11welcomebc.ca+11immicalculator.com+11pacificimmigration.ca+11cicnewsupdate.com+11immigrationnewscanada.ca+11.
- Student and Tech streams are paused, with only narrow subsets being invited under select criteria welcomebc.ca.
Will BC PNP Array Return to “Normal”?
- The New Brunswick deal shows that provincial advocacy can succeed, especially by offering alternatives like asylum claimant intake.
- BC, facing similar labour shortages, is likely to push for more allocations, though we haven’t seen it report success yet.
- Ongoing developments in Atlantic provinces suggest a new precedent—if BC follows suit, it could gain momentum:
- Plan: BC could negotiate by offering settlement support or policy alignment to IRCC.
- Timing: Provincial-level advocacy may take effect mid-to-late 2025, with possible capacity boosts in 2026 aaracanada.com+3relydence.com+3irccalerts.ca+3cicnews.com+2immigrationnewscanada.ca+2immicalculator.com+2www2.gnb.ca+1visaverge.com+1.
