canada, 20 march (ozi news desk): The Canadian government has made a significant decision regarding international students, stating that graduates from private colleges will no longer be eligible for a work permit. Additionally, this policy extends to the families of these students as well. The Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) has announced that there will be a two-year limit on the issuance of study visas for international students.
This decision was anticipated, as Immigration Minister Mark Miller had previously mentioned the possibility of implementing such measures in a December release. The government aims to ensure that designated learning institutions provide sufficient support to students as part of their academic experience.
The IRCC is under pressure to address the increasing number of international students in Canada, as the minister believes it poses a challenge to the integrity of the system. Some institutions have been accused of not delivering the promised education to students who pay high fees.
