**Immigration, Refugees, and Citizenship Canada (IRCC)** is the government department responsible for overseeing immigration, refugee protection, and citizenship matters in Canada. It manages the intake and processing of applications for immigration, refugee status, and citizenship, and it works to ensure that newcomers integrate successfully into Canadian society. The IRCC also develops and implements policies related to immigration and citizenship, including family reunification, economic immigration, and humanitarian programs. Additionally, the IRCC is responsible for issuing visas, permanent resident cards, and travel documents, and it plays a vital role in shaping Canada's immigration system to support the country’s economic, social, and cultural goals.
