Dear Valued Readers and International Students,
At Bhardwaj Law, we understand the significance of pursuing education in a foreign country and the unique challenges that may arise. Recent reports indicate a substantial decline, almost 40%, in study permit applications from India to Canada during the latter half of 2023. As a Canadian law firm led by professionals with an understanding of both Indian and Canadian legal landscapes, we feel it's crucial to address the concerns and shed light on the evolving situation.
Study Visa Canada - Understanding the Decline
The drop in applications is not solely attributed to geopolitical factors but also encompasses discussions around Canada's treatment of international students. The discourse on the exploitation of international students has gained prominence, emphasizing concerns about the high cost of living and the perceived disparity in promised opportunities.
