Why this petition matters

Started by Roksolana Tkachuk

As some of you may know there is a temporary immigration policy  to allow certain temporary residents in Canada with a visitor status to apply for a work permit from within Canada. While all visitors in Canada can apply for an employer-specific work permit under the public policy, only those who held a work permit in the last 12 months may request interim authorization to work.

 

The public policy is being extended until February 28, 2023.

 

This policy was a huge relief and big benefit to Canadian economy. In addition, majority of qualified candidates could apply from inside Canada and had no need to spend time and money on travelling overseas in order to apply. 

 

I would like to simply encourage Canadian Government to make this policy permanent. This way many immigrants could stay in Canada legally and help economical growth .
