Canada is taking a decisive step to fortify its immigration system with a groundbreaking set of document cancellation rules that took effect in 2025.

Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) has introduced amendments to the Immigration and Refugee Protection Regulations (IRPR) at the beginning of 2025, with further proposed changes coming in the forward regulatory plan for 2025 to 2027.

These new amendments are to empower officers with clear authority and greater power to cancel temporary resident documents like temporary resident visas (TRVs), electronic travel authorizations (eTAs), work permits, and study permits.

These rules, outlined in the Canada Gazette (SOR/2025-11), aim to ensure only legitimate visitors, workers, and students enter Canada, enhancing border security and program integrity.

By addressing issues like fraud, overstays, and administrative errors, Canada is reinforcing its reputation as a welcoming yet secure destination.

Check out 👇 what the new document cancellation rules are, why these rules are a brilliant move, their impact on temporary residents, and how stakeholders can navigate this transformative shift. 👇
