Canada’s immigration measures supporting Hong Kong residents and Canadians in Hong Kong

 In Immigration to Canada

On November 12, 2020, the Honourable Marco E. L. Mendicino, Minister of Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship, announced a new immigration pathway that will attract students and youth from Hong Kong to Canada.

This initiative encourages recent Hong Kong graduates with experience to choose Canada as a place to study, work and settle. The pathway gives them the opportunity to apply for an open work permit that may lead to permanent residency.

This announcement supports Canada’s commitment to preserve ties with Hong Kong.
