Thursday, September 18, 2003
The Honourable Denis Coderre, Minister of Citizenship and Immigration Canada, announced an adjustment to the pass mark for federal skilled
worker applicants. He also proposed new measures for assessing certain economic class applicants who applied under the former Immigration
Act, 1976 but who were adversely affected by transitional measures following implementation of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act (IRPA)
on June 28, 2002.
Effective immediately, all new skilled worker applicants and those currently in the system whose Applications for Permanent Residence in
Canada were filed on or after January 1, 2002 and who have not yet received a selection decision, will be assessed with a pass mark of 67
(rather than 75, which was the pass mark in existence from June 28, 2002 to September 17, 2003).
Additionally, the Minister is proposing to amend the IRPA transition regulations to allow for all skilled worker and business immigration applicants
who applied before January 1, 2002 to be assessed under the selection criteria of the former Immigration Act, 1976 and Immigration Regulations,
1978. Applicants who do not qualify under the former Immigration Act, 1976 and Immigration Regulations, 1978 would then be given a second chance
to qualify and will also be assessed under the current IRPA and Immigration Regulations, 2002.
