Canada Immigration Reforms To Benefit International Students

03 Sep 2016

Canada’s Immigration Minister, John Mc Callum addressed an immigration town hall in Brampton organized by the West MP Kamal Khera. He said that all the procedures that hinder international students to become Canadian Citizens will be soon reformed.

The minster assured possible immigration changes during the fall. The significant changes to be in effect include, increase in number of immigrants to Canada, mitigating visa processing time for family class immigration and increasing funds for refugees’ resettlement programs.

McCallum said, “International students are not treated well in the current system,”

“International students are among the most promising group of immigrants–they are young, can speak English or French and know about Canada. So, we’re going to give them more points under express entry and make it easier for them to become permanent residents.”

During his previous town hall meeting at Brampton, McCallum admitted that the Liberals have planned to welcome around 305000 immigrants during the year 2016.

The Liberal Government is hopeful about issuing 20 000 visas under the parent and grandparent visa categories.
