Is Canada the easiest country to immigrate?

Yes! Immigration Canada is considering greatly relaxing the conditions for international students to apply for immigration. This is a great benefit for students in China! )

This week, Canadian immigration minister John? JohnMcCallum has repeatedly said that the Liberal government is considering taking immediate measures to make it easier for foreign students to apply for permanent resident status after graduation.

As we all know, the former Conservative Party launched the "fast track" plan to supplement the demand of the Canadian labor market. However, a series of strict conditions make it more difficult for international students to apply for immigration. After the Liberal Party came to power, many overseas students called for immediate reform of this immigration plan.

In the current policy, there is a word that has to be mentioned-"LMIA", which is considered to be an obstacle in the immigration process of many international students!

The predecessor of LMIA is the labor market view (LMO). On June 20 14, LMO was officially renamed LMIA.

The definition of LMIA is that as an employer, you need to apply for a labor market impact assessment LMIA before hiring foreign workers or preparing to hire many workers (in fact, it increases the obstacles for employers to hire overseas students).

And according to this policy, if an employer wants to hire an international student, he must explain why this job needs a foreigner (international student), and no Canadian worker is suitable for this position. !

The employer advertises the recruitment and interview on the local recruitment website and keeps records to prove that there are no Canadian natives who meet the recruitment requirements. In other words, it is useless for employers to be satisfied with international students. You must prove that no Canadian is qualified for the job.

In addition, according to this design, if there is no competent person in Canada, it means that the position is very demanding, usually the minimum hourly wage is at least 22 Canadian dollars.

The hourly wage is 22 Canadian dollars, which even many locals can't earn! In addition, employers have to cooperate with advertisements, and it is difficult for international students to get LMIA!

According to the current system, if the international student immigration applicant obtains LMIA (it's too difficult! ), will give 600 points, if there is no LMIA, you can only take 444 at most, and the probability of immigration application is almost zero.

According to statistics, since the last Conservative government issued this policy, as of March 17 this year, the general manager * * * has conducted 28 rounds of lottery, with a minimum score of 450 points.

450 points can be said to be very difficult for ordinary international students. Take the most common conditions as an example: under 30 years old, four years of undergraduate course, excellent language. Even with one year's full-time work experience, the total score of such applicants will basically not exceed 400. If you have two years of work experience, your language ability is very outstanding, and your score can only be around 430.

Therefore, under the existing immigration policy, international students basically have no chance to immigrate unless they get LMIA. According to the data, the failure rate of Canadian students applying for LMIA after graduation is as high as 90%.

Do you understand now? The current policy of successful immigration after studying in Canada is really even more difficult!

An interviewed Vancouver China student said that he came to Canada to study on 20 1 1 after finishing high school in China, and began to apply for immigration after getting a college diploma a year ago, but he was told that his score was not enough. So he began to study in a four-year university to get a degree. If he has no immigration qualification after graduation, he can only return to China and has no chance to stay in Canada.

In view of this situation, federal immigration minister John? "We must take more measures to attract foreign students to apply for permanent residence," John mccallum said at a meeting with provincial immigration ministers on Tuesday. They are one in a million potential Canadians in the future. Therefore, we should devote ourselves to reforming the immigration system to make it more beneficial to international students. "

Mccarron said that foreign students receive education in Canada. They can speak English or French and know more about this country. Therefore, it should be our priority immigration candidate.

He even criticized the former federal Conservative government in an interview with the media, saying: "International students have been cheated by the' fast immigration' program. We must change all this! 」

"The reason why we have an urgent dialogue and communication with the provincial immigration bureaus in advance is to make it easier for international students to become permanent residents after graduating from Canadian universities. Canada should put international students at the top of the list of overseas immigrants.

According to the analysis of local immigration lawyers, the direction of reform can basically be determined as two points: whether to cancel the existing LMIA acquisition policy for international students. Or let foreign students with local work experience get double points.

Immigration officials said that more details of this major policy adjustment will be announced when the budget is submitted on March 22.

All international students have great expectations for the reform of this policy, and we will wait and see. If it goes well, Canada may become the easiest country for international students to immigrate!
