TR to PR · Prior status and immigration pathways

Explore permanent resident admissions with prior study, IMP, TFWP or PGWP permit status, by intended destination and immigration category.

2015—2026 · IRCC
Counts of people admitted as permanent residents

Not applications, approval rates or an individual’s chance of immigration.

Prior statuses can overlap, so the four cohorts must not be added. Province means intended destination at PR admission, not prior study or work location.
