Quick facts
The proposed reduction of temporary residents from 6.5% of Canada’s total population to 5% will be reflected in the 2025-2027 Immigration Levels Plan, which will be released by November 1, 2024.
Graduates from programs at public colleges will remain eligible for a Post-Graduation Work Permit (PGWP) of up to three years if they graduate from a field of study linked to occupations in long-term shortage.
As part of changes to the PGWP Program, all applicants will be required to demonstrate a minimum language proficiency in French or English. This will increase their ability to transition to permanent residence and adapt to changing economic conditions. A Canadian Language Benchmark (CLB) level 7 for university graduates and CLB 5 for college graduates will be required for anyone applying for a post-graduation work permit on or after November 1, 2024.
The 2025-2026 study permit intake cap will include master’s and doctoral students who will now have to submit a provincial or territorial attestation letter. We will be reserving approximately 12% of allocation spaces for these students in recognition of the benefits they bring to the Canadian labour market.
On January 1, 2024, the cost-of-living requirement for study permit applicants was updated to better reflect the true cost of living in Canada and help prevent student vulnerability and exploitation.
We are:
announcing a further reduction in the intake cap on international student study permits for 2025 based on a 10% reduction from the 2024 target of 485,000 new study permits issued, and then stabilizing the intake cap for 2026 such that the number of study permits issued remains the same as 2025
For 2025, this means reducing study permits issued to 437,000
updating the Post-Graduation Work Permit Program this fall to better align with immigration goals and labour market needs
limiting work permit eligibility, later this year, to spouses of master’s degree students to only those whose program is at least 16 months in duration
limiting work permit eligibility later this year to spouses of foreign workers in management or professional occupations or in sectors with labour shortages-under Canada’s work permit programs (TFWP and IMP)
