🇨🇦 More Health Care Workers in Canada Becoming Permanent Residents 🩺

👩‍⚕️ From Temporary to Permanent
A growing number of health care workers in Canada on temporary work permits are becoming permanent residents. Stats show rising transition rates since 2000.

📈 Transition Rates Are Climbing
PR success within 5 years rose from 54.5% (2000–2004) to nearly 60% (2010–2014). Recent arrivals are reaching similar levels in less time.

🛤️ More Immigration Pathways
Programs like the Provincial Nominee Program, Canadian Experience Class, and the 2021 TR to PR Pathway have boosted transitions for care workers.

👩 Majority Are Women
Three-quarters of TFWs who became PRs in health care since 2005 are women, mostly from the Philippines and India.

🔁 Retention in Health Care
Over 75% of those with health-specific permits stayed in the field 5 years after becoming PRs—key for Canada’s ageing population.
