The Canadian government has made an important decision regarding student visas. This decision will affect students who are considering leaving their home country to study in Canada. The Canadian government has announced further cuts to permits for international students. As you all know, most of the students coming to Canada from outside of Canada are Indians, which means this decision will have the biggest impact on Indian students.
Strict rules have been laid down not only for students but also for workers from other countries. This decision will have a far-reaching impact on Indian students and workers. Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau shared information on social media platform X that by 2024, they will reduce the number of permits issued to international students by 35%, and by 2025, the number will be reduced by another 10%. According to the Canadian Immigration Department, 5,09,390 permits were approved in 2023, while 1,75,920 permits were approved in the first 7 months of 2024.
This number may reach nearly 400,000
According to this decision of the Canadian government, the number of permits will be reduced significantly and the number may reach 403,700 by 2025. This new decision of the Canadian government will restrict the work permits for spouses of temporary foreign workers as well as students. Earlier, in January 2024, the Canadian government set a maximum period of two years for international students. This decision will have a wide impact on Indian students.
This proportion of children are studying abroad
Most students want to study abroad. Recently, a report revealed that 78% of rich Indians want to send their children to study abroad. At the same time, according to the Indian government report, there are 1.335 million Indian students studying abroad, of which 427,000 are studying in Canada.
