Canada extended fee-free immigration support for Haitian nationals amid ongoing security crisis

The Government of Canada has announced the continuation of special immigration measures for Haitian nationals and foreign family members of Canadian citizens and permanent residents beyond November 20, 2025. The extension allows eligible individuals to apply for study permits, open work permits, temporary resident permits, or status extensions without application fees. Initially launched in May 2024 in response to Haiti's deteriorating security conditions, these measures reflect Canada's ongoing dedication to providing refuge and support for those displaced by violence. The government emphasized its commitment to keeping families together while offering practical assistance to vulnerable populations who have already found safety within Canadian borders during this prolonged crisis.
