Canada has given a big blow to Indian students, the Trudeau government there has made some changes in the visa rules. Which has also come into effect from June 21. According to the new rules, foreign citizens will not be able to apply for post-graduation work permit after June 21, 2024. Now this process has been stopped. This means that the Post-Graduation Work Permit (PGWP) will no longer be effective for entry into Canada.
The government has also issued instructions in this regard. The Canadian government said that foreign nationals can no longer apply for post-graduation work permits at the border. This decision will come into effect immediately, which will have a huge impact on hundreds of Indian students.
According to the report, if a foreign national has applied to extend their study permit and is actually studying, this rule will not apply to them. However, they will have to wait until they receive their new study permit to be eligible. Applicants whose permit becomes invalid or expires before applying for a work permit will be able to apply from Canada.
PGWP stands for Post Graduation Work Permit. Post graduation students apply from here so that they can get training in the relevant field after completing their studies. This experience benefits them in their future career. Actually, post-graduation work permit in Canada is given to any citizen to allow them to stay and work in Canada after completing their studies. It allows you to stay and work in Canada for 3 years after graduating from a Canadian post-secondary institution.
However, you will be eligible to apply for it only if you have spent at least 8 months studying here. It is necessary to complete graduation or post-graduation from a Canadian university. For a post-graduation work permit, you must apply for a work permit within 180 days of the result.
