The Municipal Nominee Program admission levels will be included after the launch of the program. The immigration levels are almost the same as in the previous immigration levels plan announced at the same time last year. The new information released is for the targets for 2026. There are also some updates in the admissions level program-wise. **Immigration Targets for 2024, Class-wise** | **Economic ** | 58% (281,135) will be welcomed by Canada under economic immigration in 2024.

Immigrants have an important role to play in the Canadian labour market. Growing the Canadian economy now and into the future also requires the contribution of immigrants. Canadian immigration ensures that Canada has the required skills to meet key goals and fill labour force gaps in critical sectors of STEM, healthcare, etc.). While family support is important for newcomers, dependents provide an economic benefit as well by joining the workforce. Additionally, parents and grandparents often take up the responsibility of child care, allowing their sponsors to enter or remain a part of the Canadian workforce. With the announcement of the immigration levels plan for the next three years, Canada hopes to stabilize immigration, targeting a plateau in immigration targets of 500,000 per year by 2026.
