Dataset - Year, Quarter, Month, and Country-wise distribution of study permit holders by country of citizenship and the year in which the permit(s) became effective
Year, Quarter, Month, and Country-wise distribution of study permit holders by country of citizenship and the year in which the permit(s) became effective
This dataset contains the Year, quarter and month-wise study permit holders by country of citizenship and year in which permit(s) became effective
Note:
1. Data are preliminary estimates
2. Values between 0 and 5 are which are shown as “--“ in the source is left blank in this dataset and all other values are rounded to the nearest multiple of 5; as a result of rounding, data may not sum to the totals indicated.
3. The total unique count may not equal to the sum of permit holders in each program as an individual may hold more than one type of permit over a given period.
4. The table on Temporary Residents (TR) has been revised to reflect the June 20, 2014 overhaul of the Temporary Foreign Worker Program (TFWP). The reporting methodology has also been revised to count TRs, which includes Foreign Workers and International Students, based on the type of permit held by a TR (effective from the date that the permit was signed, or a valid permit at the end of a given year). As a result of the changes above, the reports for each permit holder type has been separated in order to enhance clarity.
