"Canada's Innovative Solution: Work Permit for US H-1B Visa Holders"

Canada will introduce a new open work-permit stream to allow 10,000 American H-1B visa holders, along with their family members, to work in the country. The program aims to attract workers in high-tech fields and will provide a three-year open work permit, allowing employment with any employer in Canada. The government also plans to develop an immigration stream for talented individuals to work for tech companies, regardless of having a job offer. The move comes as tech companies in the US have been laying off H-1B visa holders, leaving them in search of new opportunities.

Indian man charged for immigration fraud targeting students in Canada

Canadian authorities have charged an Indian man, Brijesh Mishra, for issuing fraudulent university letters of acceptance to Indian students and other immigration-related criminal offences. Mishra is facing five charges under the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act. Canada is a popular destination for international students since it is relatively easy to obtain a work permit. Earlier this year, several students from India had been served deportation papers for using forged documents to enter Canada in an alleged immigration scheme.
