Canada Extends Judicial Review Timeline for Immigration Applicants
Canada’s Federal Court has implemented new measures giving immigration
applicants additional time to seek judicial review of decisions. Previously,
applicants had 30 days to perfect their application for leave; they now have 75
days. This change, effective May 14, 2025, responds to a growing backlog in
review applications over 2024 and 2025.
The judicial review process consists of two main stages: the leave stage and
the review stage. After submitting an initial application for leave, applicants
must now submit their full applicant record within 75 days—an extension from
the previous 30-day deadline. This timeline begins after filing the leave
application or upon receiving the written reasons for the initial refusal.
These changes aim to provide applicants more time to compile and submit
their case, enhancing fairness and efficiency. The court may still uphold the
original decision or return it for reconsideration if legal errors are found.

Linking Your Paper Application to Your IRCC Online Account
If you’ve submitted a paper application to Immigration, Refugees and
Citizenship Canada (IRCC), you won’t receive an official Acknowledgement of
Receipt (AOR) letter. To confirm your application was delivered, IRCC advises
using a courier or postal service with tracking and signature confirmation.
You may still track your application by linking it to your IRCC secure
online account. This allows you to view updates and receive application-related
messages digitally.
To link your application:
1. Create
an IRCC secure account, if you don’t already have one.
2. Go
to “View the applications you submitted” and choose “Add (link) your
application.”
3. Use
the same details from your paper application, along with the application
number.
You have five attempts to link your application before being locked out for
24 hours. Once linked, all updates will be delivered online. It may take up to
five days for your application to appear in your account.

Why Express Entry Is Gaining Ground in 2025 – And What It Means for Skilled Workers
Several Provincial Nominee Program (PNP) streams across Canada have paused
or closed in 2025, but this isn’t necessarily bad news for skilled foreign
workers. These changes reflect a federal shift toward prioritizing Express
Entry, which now accounts for over half of all planned economic immigration.
In 2025, Express Entry targets increased to 124,590, up from 110,770 in
2024. This shift benefits skilled workers—especially those with Canadian work
experience—through the Canadian Experience Class (CEC). Express Entry offers
simpler eligibility, faster processing times, and greater mobility within
Canada, compared to the PNP system.
Applicants like Clara and Mathias, with Canadian education and work
experience, would likely receive Invitations to Apply (ITAs) under recent
Express Entry draws. With fewer barriers and streamlined processes, skilled
workers may find more success pursuing PR through Express Entry than through
increasingly limited PNP streams in 2025.
