CICC will replace ICCRC in 2021
On November 26, 2020, Immigration Minister Marco Mendicino announced the coming into force of the College of Immigration and Citizenship Consultants Act. The new Act will regulate the transition of the Immigration Consultants of Canada Regulatory Council (ICCRC) into the College of Immigration and Citizenship Consultants (CICC), a new regulatory body to oversee the work of Regulated Canadian Immigration Consultants (RCIC). CICC should implement a mandatory and robust course for those wishing to obtain an immigration consulting license; introduce transparency on fees, and provide a better system for people to make formal complaints against a consultant. Mendicino told the government will develop a new Code of Conduct for the College in order to establish strong ethical and professional standards for all consultants. IRCC anticipates the CICC will become operational in 2021.
