This initiative invites them to apply for three-year open work permits in Canada. <\/span><b>The response was swift, with the program reaching its maximum 10,000 applicants within a mere two days.<\/b><\/p><h2><span style=\"color: #4c7a9d\"><b>A Smart Move by Canada!<br \/><\/b><\/span><\/h2><p><b>Sharvari Dalal-Dheini, from the American Immigration Lawyers Association, commends Canada&#8217;s strategic approach. <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">She suggests that Canada recognized the need to harness its own economy and provide opportunities to underutilized workers not optimally utilized by the U.S.<\/span><\/p><h2><span style=\"color: #4c7a9d\"><b>Issues with the U.S. H1-B Visas<br \/><\/b><\/span><\/h2><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Around 600,000 immigrants in the U.S. hold H1-B visas, which have a direct tie to employment. However, these visas are criticized for offering inadequate pathways to permanent residency.<\/span><b> If an H1-B holder loses their job, they are required to leave the country within 60 days unless they secure new employment in that timeframe.<\/b><\/p><h2><span style=\"color: #4c7a9d\"><b>Lack of Immigration Reform in the U.S.<br \/><\/b><\/span><\/h2><p><b>Dhalal-Deini highlights that immigration advocates in the U.S. have long been advocating for immigration system reform, yet political deadlock has hindered progress.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> She notes that immigration reform has become a contentious issue due to partisan debates surrounding undocumented migration from Mexico.<\/span><\/p><h2><span style=\"color: #4c7a9d\"><b>Raising Awareness of Better Policies<br \/><\/b><\/span><\/h2><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Canadian immigration policies highlight the existence of countries that prioritize science, technology, engineering, and math fields.<\/span><b> Immigration lawyer Ashwin Sharma believes this could prompt the U.S. to reevaluate its approach.<\/b><\/p><h2><span style=\"color: #4c7a9d\"><b>Potential Impacts on Canadian Workforce + Canada&#8217;s Advantageous Approach<\/b><\/span><\/h2><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Sharma acknowledges that the open work permit system in Canada and higher salaries in U.S. tech industries might attract short-term applicants. The longevity of their stay in Canada remains uncertain.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Immigration Minister Sean Fraser underscores Canada&#8217;s unique opportunities, including the chance for tech workers on work permits to transition to permanent residency. <\/span><b>He reveals plans to monitor the program&#8217;s outcomes before considering expansion, aligning with Canada&#8217;s &#8220;digital nomad&#8221; strategy.<\/b><\/p><h2><span style=\"color: #4c7a9d\"><b>Future Expectations and Relations<br \/><\/b><\/span><\/h2><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Fraser anticipates the arrival of the first applicants in Canada during the summer or fall. However,<\/span><b> there&#8217;s been no communication from U.S. immigration officials about the program so far.<\/b><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Despite the program&#8217;s success, glitches in the Canadian online portal prompted criticism. Fraser assures that these issues will be addressed if the program is relaunched.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-96feb90
