## Caption

ਮੰਤਰੀ ਲੀਨਾ ਮੈਟਲੇਜ ਡਾਇਬ: ਇੰਟਰਨੈਸ਼ਨਲ ਸਟੂਡੈਂਟਸ ਇਕਾਨਮੀ ਵਿੱਚ ਵੈਲਯੂ ਐਡ ਕਰਦੇ ਹਨ। ਪਰ Portage-CIOT ਗਰੈਜੂਏਟਸ ਨੂੰ PGWP ਰਿਫਿਊਜ਼। 

Minister Lena Metlege Diab: “International students add value to our Canadian economy. There’s no doubt about it.”
Yet hundreds of Portage College / CIOT graduates face PGWP refusals.
IRCC’s official position (June 24, 2026 update): No change in eligibility criteria – only clarification that non-credit programs (except flight school) are not eligible. Applicants must complete a degree, diploma or certificate from a DLI.
