Huffington Post Interviews Evelyn Ackah on New International Student Travel Restrictions

Media posted on July 23, 2020 by Evelyn Ackah in Study Permits

Canada's IRCC announced most international students will not be allowed to travel to or enter Canada.

Canada immigration lawyer Evelyn Ackah spoke to Huffington Post about international students barred from Canada study in 2020. International students make big contributions to Canadian universities and colleges, and the economy.

“If you can’t get here, it might make sense to delay your plans for a year, and to get this COVID situation under control. I think it’s very realistic to maybe save the stress and the money to just pause and take a year until everything gets sorted.”
