Maple Ledger

Follows Canadian immigration from Express Entry to permanent residence. It looks harder than most at how IRCC's own statements line up against actual processing times, and whether the system is on track to meet its stated PR targets. Readers get a working sense of draw categories, the gap between official promises and real queues, and how to read a refusal from the decision notes rather than from guesswork. It walks through what to expect from Express Entry in the coming selection cycle and how upcoming changes to study permits and LMIA rules ripple into real applications. It also tracks the 90-day grace period for work permit holders whose LMIA is expiring, and flags patterns behind fraud run by fake consultants. It doesn't offer legal advice or weigh in on individual cases — only explains how the system works.
