Immigrant Students In Canada Get Help From The Country

Canada has been the destination for many people around the world to travel in. It has also been a destination for people who wish to work where there are greener pastures. And it has also been a place for people who wish to pursue further studies. In March this year, the country has been doing its best and asking for help to assist all of the immigrant students who are in the country and have been experiencing some difficulties because of the pandemic brought about by the coronavirus.

This is a good thing for the immigrant students in Canada because there are a lot of them who go to the country each year and study there. These students have been very important for society and the economy of Canada. There are around 640,000 immigrant students in Canada each year and they study in the many colleges and universities that the country offers. Numbers have it that these immigrant students contribute around $22 billion to Canada’s economy on a yearly basis and they also help give around 200,000 locals jobs.

Recognizing the need to help immigrant students

Canada has recognized that the immigrant students in its territory have been experiencing difficulties because of the pandemic that has been doing a lot of disruptions the world over. That is why the country has decided that it would be creating special measures that would help the immigrant students that it has. These measures would also be helping not just the current students there but also all of the other immigrant students who would be joining Canada in the future.

This move from the government of Canada has been well appreciated by many people around the world and not just by the immigrant students in the country. It just reflects that the country is concerned about the people who are in their country even if they are not citizens there. The pandemic is seen not to stop any time soon and so it is very important that Canada plans well to make sure that immigrant students are taken care of.

Extending their stay

Current immigrant students in Canada and may need to extend the time of their stay in the country because of the pandemic are eligible to do so. This also rings true for former immigrant students who may now hold a Post-Graduation Work Permit. These people can actually go and take advantage of the implied status which would be very useful while the Immigration, Refugees, and Citizenship Canada would be reviewing their applications for an extension of their work permit or study permit. This way, the immigrant students or former immigrant students can continue what they are doing in the country based on the conditions given to them when their original permit was granted.
