The dream of Indian students to go to Canada seems to be breaking at the moment. Canada has rejected most of the visa applications in the last few months. Canada has taken this step in view of visa fraud. Along with India, there are also clouds of crisis looming over the visas of Chinese and Bangladeshi citizens.
According to ‘CBC News’ report, Canadian authorities have partnered with US agencies to identify and cancel fake visitor visa applications coming from India and Bangladesh. The important thing is that Canada has also become strict regarding student visa.
74 percent study permits of Indian students canceled
News agency ANI, quoting government data, said that in August 2025, 74 percent of study permits of Indian students were canceled, that is, three out of four visas were rejected. Whereas in August 2023 this figure was only 32 percent. For this reason, students going from India to Canada for studies are facing problems. Prime Minister Mark Carney’s government is set to present its immigration levels plan this month. There is pressure on the government to reduce the number of people coming into the country from other countries.
The number of people going to Canada has decreased
Canada has rejected about 40 percent of global student permits in the last two years. The important thing is that the rejection rate of Chinese students remained only 24 percent. Canada was once a popular destination for Indian students, but now the number of applications has declined. 20900 students had applied in August 2023. Whereas in August 2025 only 4515 applications were received. Despite this decline, visa applications are being rejected from Canada. According to the report, about 1000 Indian applications were rejected.
