What an incredible few days at !
Met hundreds of fellow Canadian immigration professionals, connected with officials from IRCC and ESDC, attended policy update sessions, and learned about the future of Canadian immigration.
One key takeaway: AI is changing immigration, but it isn’t replacing immigration professionals. In fact, as applications become more complex, expertise, strategy, and professional judgment are becoming more important than ever.
I also heard countless stories of refused DIY applications that could have been avoided with proper guidance.
Grateful for the conversations, friendships, learning, and memories—from policy discussions to shared meals, networking, and celebrations.
Excited for what lies ahead for our profession and for Canadian immigration.
