IRCC implemented new fees for restoration, IEC and inadmissibility services, effective December 1, 2025

IRCC has officially updated several immigration fees effective December 1, 2025, affecting International Experience Canada (IEC) applicants, restoration of status, and multiple inadmissibility services. The changes include higher charges for authorizations to return to Canada, temporary resident permits, criminality and serious criminality assessments, as well as restoration of visitor, worker, and student status. Applicants who submit online must pay the new fees immediately, while those who mailed applications before the change may still proceed, but will be asked to pay the difference. IRCC also clarified that those who delayed paying the right of permanent residence fee must now pay the updated amount. The department reminds applicants to verify current fees before submitting to avoid delays or additional payment requests.
