This system automatically assesses the eligibility of International Experience Canada (IEC) Working Holiday Program applications by applying pre-defined rules about age, citizenship, passport validity, and country of residence. Routine, clearly eligible applications receive an automated positive eligibility assessment; all other applications are reviewed in full by an immigration officer. IRCC officers make the final approval or refusal decision on every application — the system cannot refuse or recommend refusals.
