IRCC (Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada)

IRCC, or Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada, is the Canadian government department responsible for managing immigration, refugee protection, and citizenship matters. Its role includes processing visa applications, facilitating immigration programs, helping newcomers settle in Canada, and ensuring the country’s immigration policies align with national interests.
