Canadian citizens and Canadian permanent residents

Canadian permanent residents residing in Hong Kong who require a permanent resident travel document (PRTD) will have their paper applications prioritized at IRCC Hong Kong.
Temporary residence - e.g. Work Permit
All temporary residence applications for HKSAR or BNO passport holders should be processed following the Temporary residence: COVID-19 program delivery instructions.
Holders of HKSAR passports are visa exempt and may apply for an electronic travel authorization (eTA) should they wish to come to Canada.
Priority processing instructions:
Family reunification
Students
International Experience Canada (IEC)
Family reunification
IRCC will give priority processing to temporary residence applications from immediate and extended family members (as defined in the Orders in Council) of Canadian citizens, persons registered under the Indian Act, permanent residents and protected persons in Canada who have applied for permanent residence, if their family members abroad hold a valid passport and have remained in, or have departed, Hong Kong. These measures apply to new and existing applications.
Learn more: Travel restriction measures: COVID-19 program delivery
Students
Priority processing should be given to all study permit applications received from HKSAR and BNO passport holders.
Officers should process all Hong Kong study permit applications and finalize those that are for designated learning institutions (DLIs) https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/study-canada/study-permit/prepare/designated-learning-institutions-list.html on the list of DLIs with COVID-19 readiness plans https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/coronavirus-covid19/students/approved-dli.html approved by their provincial or territorial authority. If their DLI is not on the list, officers should still process their application but not finalize it until their DLI is on the approved list.
Until further notice, officers may continue to request any necessary additional documents or impose regulatory requirements for processing in relation to study permit applications, including police certificates, biometric enrolments, passports and medical examinations,, as follows:
•When additional documentation is required to make a decision on the application, processing officers should send a request letter and allow 90 days for the applicant to respond.
•If a request for additional documentation was previously sent but the applicant was unable to comply within the deadline, processing officers should bring forward the deadline and allow an additional 90 days for the applicant to respond.
Until further notice, applicants will not be refused for non-compliance.
International Experience Canada (IEC)
Prior to closing the program’s 2020 season on November 12, International Experience Canada (IEC) invited a number of Hong Kong youth in the IEC pool to submit an application. Hong Kong youth will not be able to enter Canada unless they have
•a valid port of entry letter of introduction
•a valid job offer, which includes a written note from an employer in Canada that says ◦their business is continuing to operate (whether essential or not)
◦they will start work after the 14-day mandatory quarantine
•proof of adequate health-care coverage
Applications in processing will not be closed or refused for lack of documentation or inability to complete the application process in time, such as giving biometrics or completing a medical exam.
Permanent residence
Permanent residence applications from family members of Canadian citizens, persons registered under the Indian Act, permanent residents or protected persons residing in Hong Kong that are in processing should be prioritized where feasible. However, in some circumstances, the most expeditious option for these clients may be to apply for an eTA or TRV.
Family class applications
Priority processing should be given to family class applications received from legal residents of Hong Kong (whether they are currently in Canada or outside of Canada or in the US).
Existing applications
Existing complete family class permanent residence applications under section R10 will be processed on a priority basis while taking into consideration the additional processing guidance outlined in these instructions.
Use the organization ID to track all applications received from Hong Kong nationals. If the application is still incomplete in 90 days, officers should request the missing documents with an additional 90-day deadline.
New applications
If a new application is missing supporting documentation (associated fees are required) due to COVID-19 circumstances, the Centralized Intake Office (CIO) or Case Processing Centre in Mississauga (CPC-M) may promote the application, and it can be reviewed in 90 days. Officers should associate the organization ID to track all applications received from Hong Kong nationals. If the application is still incomplete in 90 days, officers should request the missing documents with an additional 90-day deadline.
Applications found to be incomplete with no explanation provided, or for reasons unrelated to the disruption of services associated with impacts of COVID-19, may be rejected as per section R10, and all fees associated with the application should be refunded to the applicant. The reason for rejection should be unrelated to the disruption of services.
Officers should consult the current Permanent residence: COVID-19 program delivery instructions for more information on processing applications that have been affected by the disruption in services as a result of COVID-19.

Canada Announces Work Permit, Permanent Residence Options For Hong Kong Residents https://www.immigration.ca/canada-announces-work-permit-permanent-residence-options-for-hong-kong-residents Last Updated on November 12, 2020
Canada has announced a new open work permit and two pathways to permanent residency aimed specifically at Hong Kong residents.
The move comes in response to China’s imposition of a controversial national security law earlier in 2020, giving it broad new powers in Hong Kong.
Canada is also enhancing existing programs to help people from Hong Kong already here to stay, and those who want to make plans to come when COVID-19 restrictions are lifted.
Immigration Minister Marco Mendicino said Canada continues to support the people of Hong Kong and to stand up for democracy and human rights.
“The people-to-people ties between Canada and Hong Kong are strong and deep, and these new measures celebrate those long-standing relationships,” he said.
“Newcomers from Hong Kong, including students, have made outstanding contributions to Canada, and the changes we’re announcing today will strengthen our relationship with the people of Hong Kong and bring us closer together.”
Open Work Permit
The new open work permit, valid for up to 3 years, is aimed at students who have completed post-secondary education in Canada or abroad in the last 5 years. Spouses or common law partners and dependent children will also be eligible for a study or work permit. The initiative is expected to launch ‘soon’, Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) said.
Pathways to Permanent Residence
For Hong Kong residents who come to Canada to study or work, 2 new pathways to permanent residence are being created, available in 2021.
Spouses, partners, and dependent children are included for both pathways.
1.The first will target former Hong Kong residents with a minimum of 1 year of work experience in Canada and meet minimum language and education criteria.
2.The second will be for graduates of a post-secondary institution in Canada, allowing them to apply directly for permanent residence.
Expedited Processing
Canada will expedite the processing of work and study permits for eligible young people from Hong Kong.
Processing Fees Waived
Canada will also waive processing fees for Hong Kong residents in Canada on a temporary basis applying to extend their stay.
