Government of Canada announces further measures to support international students
As part of the Government’s efforts to support international students, the Honourable Marco E. L. Mendicino, Minister of Immigration, Refugees, and Citizenship, today announced further measures to ensure that international students won’t miss out on opportunities after they graduate due to the pandemic.
With the prospect of many international students continuing online learning from abroad for several more months, temporary changes to the PGWP Program put in place earlier in the pandemic are being extended and expanded.
These measures will assist international students by ensuring that studies completed outside Canada will count towards a future PGWP, and by allowing international students to complete their entire program online from abroad and still be eligible for a PGWP.
The measures apply to all international students who are enrolled in a PGWP-eligible program and meet all other PGWP criteria.
