Liberal government to slash number of permits by 10 per cent
The Liberal government says it will slash the number of international student permits it issues by another 10 per cent.
The government says the new target for 2025 and 2026 will be 437,000 permits.
In 2024, the target was 485,000 permits.
It is also putting new limits on work permits for spouses of both foreign workers and students in master’s degree programs.
Earlier this year, the Liberal government announced a temporary cap to reduce the number of new student visas by more than a third this year.
Those changes followed significant scrutiny of the international student program as experts warned that strong population growth was putting pressure on an already-strained housing market.
