The major problem is that we have 2.5 million temporary residents and last year IRCC issued 110k invitations to apply for permanent residency, Nobody wants to go back everyone wants PR but the number is out of control that's what Mark Miller recognized.
Negative effects? Like being able to find a place to live or a job. Private institutions can get bent. They are the main cause of all this nonsense. Very insightful video though and presented very well.
They might shut down soon. No PGWP means no students want to study there. Plus, no way domestic ones will study there paying 4-5x the international fees. With no funding from the gov, I don't see any reason for them to exist. Some private universities might thrive now.
Another problem that started with students is home rentals, people started renting out houses and apartments by the room or by the person for more expensive amounts which led to more landlords upping rent fees and trying to exclusively rent to students and then families and non students are unable to find homes for fair prices especially any in the same area as the university college or downtown areas
Arbitrary immigration targets are simultaneously increasing demand and suppressing wage growth. There are better ways to control immigration. I would suggest demand based approach with some guard rails in place. For instance, I would require all educational institutions to provide housing for international student (at least 50%). Businesses should be required to provide accommodation to all temporary/seasonal workers on top of the minimum wage. In order to hire foreigners employers should be required to prove that he is paying enough to afford housing in the region (market cost of accommodation is less than 30% of salary). Accommodation for refugees should be secured before bringing them to the country from around the globe. No accommodation = no permits. It would limit demand and prevent wage suppression.
socialist thinking... the "you owe me entitlement" mindset is ridiculous... you pay then if you feel that strongly... raise your taxes.. talk is cheap... think the bigger picture

I need clarification on the graduate-level programs that will lead to the 3-year PGWP. Are Graduate Certificates and Graduate Diplomas included? I am wondering.
I think so, the anouncement says "Graduates of master’s and other short graduate-level programs will soon be eligible to apply for a 3-year work permit. " but havent specified a date or more details on who is elegible
Lots of things to digest here, particularly the provincial cap. So, the province has to choose which student they let to study in their province? An engineering undergrad at Waterloo or a general studies diploma student. Which one do you think will they choose?
Id really appreciate if you answered my question. I got my study visa approved right after the announcement I had applied in Nov 9 2023.

@@ImCanada many may think they will get in and start by May 2024. Even if you’ve applied already it will be almost impossible to get approval to start in May unless you apply for a masters, PhD or other short term post graduate likely university program. Assume timing of announcement may have also been a consideration. Very few programs have a May start date while announcing the changes now may mean people will be able to get approved for September 2024 start. Assume many colleges may also close by next September too. People should stick to large public schools. Would even avoid private universities which I never recommend to begin with but can only imagine universities like UCW and NYIT are going to have skyrocketing allocations for their masters programs.
Current phd students are exempt. However future phd students their spouses will have little chance in acquiring visas. The UK now requires foreign students are not allowed to bring dependents. it’s the liberal’s fault for treating non-Canadians like voting chips nothing valued more.
"In the weeks ahead, open work permits will only be available to spouses of international students in master’s and doctoral programs. The spouses of international students in other levels of study, including undergraduate and college programs, will no longer be eligible." Based on the wordings, I think they're already going to reject new SOWP for those not in Masters and PHDs..unfair? Maybe..but rn they seem to focus on Masters and PHDs..it won't affect SOWP extensions I think but new applications for SOWP mostly might be denied..but best u can do is try?🤷♂️
I made biometric study permit for embassy 15/12/2023 and still waiting don't have respond me yet is it normal to be late in this stage all aplicant international student and normally how many days after biometric you wait for
At this point you are going to have to wait for provinces to figure out their attestation programs so you will likely be in a holding pattern for a few months unless studying for a masters, PhD or whatever is defined as short graduate course
The only thing applicable from 1st Sept 2024 is that those who r still studying in public-private partnership programs (meaning those who e currently enrolled and graduating post 1st September 2024 too) would not be eligible for PGWP. Rest all are in effect or will be in effect shortly (will be in affect - Masters students eligible for 3 years pgwp, though hopefully they announce that date soon)..
Not much..if your 1 year pg program is under the public-private partnership and if you're going to graduate after 1st Sept 2024 then you won't get PGWP 2) if your 1 year pg program is not from the public-private partnership then you will get 1 year PGWP based on that. They removed the "other short term graduate level programs" from the 3 year work permit situation. You will still not get SOWP (unless you're in exempted list)..even though u will get your own pgwp..
@@nikitadawra7962 again it depends on what type of program you are doing..if your study is in public-private model (the list they may come out with soon) then you won't get it since you will still be studying in Sept 2024) if your course is outside of that then you will most probably get only 1 year PGWP (based on length)..assuming that your program isn't Master's program. (Only Masters students with 1 year would get 3 year PGWP). So again, based on what course you are studying your PGWP depends on that..(assuming) you are not doing Masters so even if you get PGWP, based on your course it would be 1 year PGWP

@@ImCanadaagree that colleges will likely be out of any definition for short grad courses. We’ll see what university programs likely qualify. Goal is to prioritize genuine students. Still lots of questionable 1 year certificates at the university level but we’ll see. Postgrad college programs are one of the most popular types of degrees for international students and many are not picky and willing to study any postgrad college program in the hopes of securing PR which is the only reason they are studying.

What school is buying an mri machine😂 Even radiologist rarely see the MRI machine they get a video and diagnose from videos and images. Also how people learn. Understand that programs that have labs for example are more expensive to run which is what arts programs are the cheapest to run but expenses are not as high as you would expect for many programs. Many health related programs use students to train on and people take turns. Programs may no longer do things like regularly practice on each other giving IVs or at least get consent before doing things like giving your lab partner an ultrasound but teaching hospitals exist for a reason and many health professions spend their first year essentially learning how to do things after learning mostly theory.
@@ImCanada I understand but provinces will hopefully make sure certain schools and program will get attestation. Student choice of program may also start changing as international students start realizing how hard it will be to get selected for PR with a post grad from a college in international business for example or other common degree. International students may start considering programs like nursing or trades. Sadly many have cultural beliefs that these jobs are inferior and white collar jobs are what is sought out. Sadly many trades would be much more lucrative jobs and easier jobs to find after graduation. For many, trades would also provide a much easier pathway to PR. Sadly many take advice from corrupt consultants in their home country or make decision based on family pressure or understanding of immigration. Immigration doesn’t even make sense for many. It may have made sense 10-15+ years ago but many families are pushing their children to immigrate to Canada, Australia, UK, US or NZ no matter what. Their expectation is based on the expat experience they have heard from friends and family for the past 40 years when things have changed dramatically during that time. Many also are not honest about their immigration experience or their current situation. People are making decisions based on what people say is their life abroad when they return every year for a visit, often with gifts and through social media, while not being honest about the fact that they are working 3 jobs and have maxed out their budget to come and visit. On the list of other immigration issues that need to be examined is parent sponsorship and current state of supervisas and whether parent sponsorship is feasible and given the levels of immigration does it make sense to allow a small level or just outright deny it. The H&C processing time has almost doubled due to so many applying for their parents. It was predictable but the cost to process all these applications and the stress that this is putting on the H&C system is ridiculous. The H&C system is already plagued by problems. I have seen so many cases where people are on their 3rd or 4th H&C application have never been forced to leave Canada. They keep on applying until they get approved meanwhile all these applications have cost the taxpayer multiple hundreds of thousands of dollars. Many who recently arrived and are unwilling to wait for their turn to get selected for PGP while many others have been waiting for over a decade. Supervisas length being increased to 5-7 years with the expectation that people will return home from this visit is also delusional. Although seniors do have to take out supervisa insurance it only provide 100k of coverage and it still places significant demand on our healthcare resources. In my opinion it would be much better to be upfront with people about their parents’ ability to move to Canada so they can decide whether immigration makes sense for their family. People are still under the impression that after 3 years of meeting an extremely low income amount and being a PR they will be able to sponsor their parents. Until their parents get PR they will get a normal TRV and then return home for a quick trip to apply for a supervisa. If they ever lose status, are refused an extension or are denied H&C they will just remain in Canada undocumented. Given our ageing population and our healthcare system in crisis we can’t absorb more seniors. No government wants to discuss the issue since it is a top 5 voting issue for many communities while many Canadians have no idea that you can sponsor your parent and grandparents with full access to healthcare. Only limitation is really access to welfare payments for 20 years and 10 years in Quebec. Sure many without a GP or on a waitlist for surgery, LTC, etc. may be shocked. Other big issue for Mark Miller to tackle is the WP market. Enforcing the residency requirement is also one of my pet peeves. Most PRs know RO is a joke and fly into Canada right before PR card expires or crosses from the US land border sometimes decades after leaving Canada. Many aren’t even reported after being out of Canada for 20+ years! Miller seems to be pretty intelligent and rationale so hopefully he will be in the file for a while and finally address some of the big issues with immigration and get systems running smoothly. He hasn’t returned the TRV processing that was changed around a year ago leading to exponential growth in asylum claims and TRVs being approved for tons of people with almost no savings and minimal ties to their home country so I guess I should lower my expectations. You’d think an asylum claimant ended up dying in a tent because there was no available shelter bed or approximately a billion dollars spent on hotel rooms in a year would lead to some action when it came to TRV processing but no🤯
Hello sir ! my wife is studying PG in Seneca College. Her class was started on 8th Jan 2024, i just Lodged my spousal open work permit on 26th Jan, will I have a chance to get my visa approved?? Please reply I’m really depressed
Would be difficult tbh.. "In the weeks ahead, open work permits will only be available to spouses of international students in master’s and doctoral programs. The spouses of international students in other levels of study, including undergraduate and college programs, will no longer be eligible." Seems like they're already implementing it..i.e. only for Masters and PHD spouses..but since u already applied just wait and watch? U never know..I know it can be nerve wrecking..but hopefully things will sort out
Definitely, there's already conversations ( queens university, brock , Guelph, western) to cut programs in masters, raise tuitions and reduce coops. If provinces don't match funding, Canadian students should be prepared for an increase in tuitions like they haven't seen before
Schools don't buy mri,s for nursing students?? Lol the students study in the hospitals and oversee mri,s and x-rays that are being done on patients and they study previous scans! And implementation is easy the schools only accept the number that they are allowed, it doesn't matter how many people applied for visas the visa doesn't enroll you! If you work in this field you should know this stuff, immigration is not helping us in the end anymore there are just to many, we have housing shortages and not enough good paying jobs for our citizens so how are gonna offer the few jobs available to immigrants? That's not fair, the people already living here deserve the jobs and housing first, it's common sense but it's amazing how our government can't handle common sense issues 🤔

The updates are coming but I don't think it's fair if they are affected
"In the weeks ahead, open work permits will only be available to spouses of international students in master’s and doctoral programs. The spouses of international students in other levels of study, including undergraduate and college programs, will no longer be eligible."
Based on the wordings, I think they're already going to reject new SOWP for those not in Masters and PHDs..unfair? Maybe..but rn they seem to focus on Masters and PHDs..it won't affect SOWP extensions I think but new applications for SOWP mostly might be denied..but best u can do is try?🤷♂️
I made biometric study permit for embassy 15/12/2023 and still waiting don't have respond me yet is it normal to be late in this stage all aplicant international student and normally how many days after biometric you wait for
I think it's fine, sometimes you have to wait for 2-3 months
At this point you are going to have to wait for provinces to figure out their attestation programs so you will likely be in a holding pattern for a few months unless studying for a masters, PhD or whatever is defined as short graduate course
Hey Max, this is only in effect from the 1st of Sept? not immediately righ?
Yes it has immediate impacts. SOWP applications may no longer be available anymore for everyone and you will need provincial attestation.
Some - yes. But some already apply like the attestation letter
The only thing applicable from 1st Sept 2024 is that those who r still studying in public-private partnership programs (meaning those who e currently enrolled and graduating post 1st September 2024 too) would not be eligible for PGWP. Rest all are in effect or will be in effect shortly (will be in affect - Masters students eligible for 3 years pgwp, though hopefully they announce that date soon)..
Do you think it would be possible to extend the OWP for those who are already in Canada?
Same question. Someone answer please
Post grad Open work permits don't renewed. Because of covid OWP we're being renewed but the last batch was in 2023. So no more renewals being offered.
PGWP or SOWP?
Yeah..shouldn't be a problem for them..but better to apply asap if it is nearing..and consult rcic when the time comes
You should be able to
Hey Max,
What will be the impact of these changes on post graduate programs (1 year)?
We'll see when they expand the definitions
Not much..if your 1 year pg program is under the public-private partnership and if you're going to graduate after 1st Sept 2024 then you won't get PGWP
2) if your 1 year pg program is not from the public-private partnership then you will get 1 year PGWP based on that. They removed the "other short term graduate level programs" from the 3 year work permit situation. You will still not get SOWP (unless you're in exempted list)..even though u will get your own pgwp..
@@Rogue-xu5lv so am i eligible for 3 year PGWP or not ? As i am going for May 2024 intake
@@nikitadawra7962 again it depends on what type of program you are doing..if your study is in public-private model (the list they may come out with soon) then you won't get it since you will still be studying in Sept 2024) if your course is outside of that then you will most probably get only 1 year PGWP (based on length)..assuming that your program isn't Master's program. (Only Masters students with 1 year would get 3 year PGWP). So again, based on what course you are studying your PGWP depends on that..(assuming) you are not doing Masters so even if you get PGWP, based on your course it would be 1 year PGWP
Does this affect existing international students?
Not really
Depends..if you're in the PPP model school and still enrolled in classes after 1st Sept 2024 then you will not get PGWP

Hello, I have applied for MSc post graduation 16 month program in Memorial university of newfoundland.... So for this program is there will be 2 year work permit or 3 years like past days?
Any comments?
you will get 3 years pgwp , assuming you are not in canada yet and you plan to apply😊
I have just applied in the university and yet I have not got any reply from them about acceptance letter...
What about the Attestation letter??? for Msc do we also need to provide this?
I think 3 years but we'll see more as they update instructions
You would have already qualified for 3 years so no changes. It’s unclear if masters will need attestation letter.
Is Senecca a sketchy school?
It's a good one
@@ImCanada then ok😄
Nice. I was accepted by one-year Ontario College Graduate Certification in Business Analytics (8 moths of stydy) by Seneca for May 2024.
1. Will I get 3 years PGWP for graduate certificate?
2. Do I need provincial attestation for graduate certification?
3. Am I under cap for graduate certification?
Hi!
1. Will see soon, but I think only university program will make you eligible.
2. Yes, similar to CAQ, but more details will come soon.
3. Yes
@@ImCanada I believe rule 3 will not take effect before the Sep '24 intake
@@ImCanadaagree that colleges will likely be out of any definition for short grad courses. We’ll see what university programs likely qualify. Goal is to prioritize genuine students. Still lots of questionable 1 year certificates at the university level but we’ll see. Postgrad college programs are one of the most popular types of degrees for international students and many are not picky and willing to study any postgrad college program in the hopes of securing PR which is the only reason they are studying.

I believe so, as this affects college and university.

@@ImCanada Would be glad to know if the SOWP will henceforth be issued to spouse of Masters and Phd students only or Post Graduate Diploma students as well.
Implementing is easy. It is approximate. We don't need that many immigrants, refugees or students.
LeMiniski I agree, this is for the betterment of Canadian citizens. About time this happened!
Time will show
What school is buying an mri machine😂 Even radiologist rarely see the MRI machine they get a video and diagnose from videos and images. Also how people learn. Understand that programs that have labs for example are more expensive to run which is what arts programs are the cheapest to run but expenses are not as high as you would expect for many programs. Many health related programs use students to train on and people take turns. Programs may no longer do things like regularly practice on each other giving IVs or at least get consent before doing things like giving your lab partner an ultrasound but teaching hospitals exist for a reason and many health professions spend their first year essentially learning how to do things after learning mostly theory.
Yeah, that's a good point but I think you know what programs I mean it makes more financial sense to push
@@ImCanada I understand but provinces will hopefully make sure certain schools and program will get attestation. Student choice of program may also start changing as international students start realizing how hard it will be to get selected for PR with a post grad from a college in international business for example or other common degree. International students may start considering programs like nursing or trades. Sadly many have cultural beliefs that these jobs are inferior and white collar jobs are what is sought out. Sadly many trades would be much more lucrative jobs and easier jobs to find after graduation. For many, trades would also provide a much easier pathway to PR. Sadly many take advice from corrupt consultants in their home country or make decision based on family pressure or understanding of immigration. Immigration doesn’t even make sense for many. It may have made sense 10-15+ years ago but many families are pushing their children to immigrate to Canada, Australia, UK, US or NZ no matter what. Their expectation is based on the expat experience they have heard from friends and family for the past 40 years when things have changed dramatically during that time. Many also are not honest about their immigration experience or their current situation. People are making decisions based on what people say is their life abroad when they return every year for a visit, often with gifts and through social media, while not being honest about the fact that they are working 3 jobs and have maxed out their budget to come and visit.
On the list of other immigration issues that need to be examined is parent sponsorship and current state of supervisas and whether parent sponsorship is feasible and given the levels of immigration does it make sense to allow a small level or just outright deny it. The H&C processing time has almost doubled due to so many applying for their parents. It was predictable but the cost to process all these applications and the stress that this is putting on the H&C system is ridiculous. The H&C system is already plagued by problems. I have seen so many cases where people are on their 3rd or 4th H&C application have never been forced to leave Canada. They keep on applying until they get approved meanwhile all these applications have cost the taxpayer multiple hundreds of thousands of dollars. Many who recently arrived and are unwilling to wait for their turn to get selected for PGP while many others have been waiting for over a decade. Supervisas length being increased to 5-7 years with the expectation that people will return home from this visit is also delusional. Although seniors do have to take out supervisa insurance it only provide 100k of coverage and it still places significant demand on our healthcare resources. In my opinion it would be much better to be upfront with people about their parents’ ability to move to Canada so they can decide whether immigration makes sense for their family. People are still under the impression that after 3 years of meeting an extremely low income amount and being a PR they will be able to sponsor their parents. Until their parents get PR they will get a normal TRV and then return home for a quick trip to apply for a supervisa. If they ever lose status, are refused an extension or are denied H&C they will just remain in Canada undocumented. Given our ageing population and our healthcare system in crisis we can’t absorb more seniors. No government wants to discuss the issue since it is a top 5 voting issue for many communities while many Canadians have no idea that you can sponsor your parent and grandparents with full access to healthcare. Only limitation is really access to welfare payments for 20 years and 10 years in Quebec. Sure many without a GP or on a waitlist for surgery, LTC, etc. may be shocked. Other big issue for Mark Miller to tackle is the WP market. Enforcing the residency requirement is also one of my pet peeves. Most PRs know RO is a joke and fly into Canada right before PR card expires or crosses from the US land border sometimes decades after leaving Canada. Many aren’t even reported after being out of Canada for 20+ years! Miller seems to be pretty intelligent and rationale so hopefully he will be in the file for a while and finally address some of the big issues with immigration and get systems running smoothly. He hasn’t returned the TRV processing that was changed around a year ago leading to exponential growth in asylum claims and TRVs being approved for tons of people with almost no savings and minimal ties to their home country so I guess I should lower my expectations. You’d think an asylum claimant ended up dying in a tent because there was no available shelter bed or approximately a billion dollars spent on hotel rooms in a year would lead to some action when it came to TRV processing but no🤯
What is sketchy school and how can i know it😅

Definitely, there's already conversations ( queens university, brock , Guelph, western) to cut programs in masters, raise tuitions and reduce coops. If provinces don't match funding, Canadian students should be prepared for an increase in tuitions like they haven't seen before

Schools don't buy mri,s for nursing students?? Lol the students study in the hospitals and oversee mri,s and x-rays that are being done on patients and they study previous scans! And implementation is easy the schools only accept the number that they are allowed, it doesn't matter how many people applied for visas the visa doesn't enroll you! If you work in this field you should know this stuff, immigration is not helping us in the end anymore there are just to many, we have housing shortages and not enough good paying jobs for our citizens so how are gonna offer the few jobs available to immigrants? That's not fair, the people already living here deserve the jobs and housing first, it's common sense but it's amazing how our government can't handle common sense issues 🤔

It's subjective
"We risk getting much fewer international students and what's that going to do? That's going to have negative effects... on the housing market because many of those students are graduating from trade schools." Man, you're really reaching there 😅You don't think that benefit is somewhat cancelled out by the fact that the entire cohort (not just the ones in trade schools) needs somewhere to live?
That's a chicken and egg problem, yes
Alot of students are homeless but it's okay let's bring them in to build houses for us. Majority of them don't study trades.
I'd say the minority is homeless, and yes, trades are not a popular but it's a growing trend
