On April 24, 2024, Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) announced a new update concerning the Quebec Selection Certificate (CSQ) holders currently residing outside Quebec who are applying for work permits under the International Mobility Program. The updated instructions clarify that starting from 2023, a maximum of 7,350 work permit applications will be accepted each calendar year. This limit has been implemented to manage the numbers efficiently and ensure a smooth application process. However, it is important to note that this cap may be subject to change based on the program’s annual review.
