April 1, 2015 Repatration Program for all Contract Workers in Canada

[dondon1978]

Hi I heard that the Government of Canada enacted the program that all foreign landed workers will be able to send back to their origin country? Could this be revised? If so, Is there any chances to come back again in Canada to continue working with employer once they hired again? Please anyone can explain these concisely. Thanks :'(

This regulation was set on April 1, 2011 and simply it stated that you, as foreign temporary worker, you can work for a maximum of four years then you should stay 4 years outside Canada and then return again in a new job.

kindly read what were the inputs given to you especially cited by PMM complete with link. whatever the program of cic is first and foremost for the betterment of canada. we must be thankful that Canada welcomes all nations of the world now and even promoting multi culturalism as well. whatever they formulate as their rules is their call. any amendments ang revision you are praying for should work well and benefit canadian immigration above all...i hope i help.

Yes - regulations can be amended.

It's unlikely this one will be changed anytime soon. It's a very new rule.
