Admissions targets
The number of people targeted to become permanent residents during the year, including people nominated in earlier years and their accompanying family
“Admitted so far” is the number of people who became permanent residents this year, published monthly by IRCC — the same measure as the target, about six weeks behind. IRCC rounds to 5 and suppresses counts under 5, so figures are approximate.
