FreightAmigo Assists International Students Amid Canadian Policy Change

Understanding the New Canadian Policy

According to a recent report from The Queen’s Journal, the Canadian government has implemented a new policy that restricts work permits for spouses of international students. This change primarily affects students enrolled in programs below the graduate level, potentially impacting the financial planning and lifestyle arrangements of many international families considering education in Canada.

Key points of the new policy include:

• Work permits will only be available to spouses of students in graduate-level programs
• Students in other post-secondary programs will no longer be able to obtain work permits for their spouses
• The policy aims to address concerns about the integrity of the International Student Program

These changes underscore the need for efficient and flexible logistics solutions to support international students and their families as they navigate the complexities of relocation and immigration.
