Permanent Residents
Help us improve our services
We’re looking for people to spend 30 to 60 minutes in the coming months to try out a form, a web tool or other IRCC products.
You’ll tell us what’s easy or hard to understand, and then we’ll use your feedback to improve our products.
If you’re interested, answer a few questions to see how you can help.
