On March 30, 2020, Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) announced that in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the government has rescheduled the start of the Agri-Food Immigration Pilot for May 15, 2020.
The new pilot will be accepting applications until May 14, 2023. The details about the new program can be expected online closer to the official opening of the program. Candidates who are preparing their application may face delays in obtaining supporting documentation due to the limited capacity of work of the issuing organizations.
