Today, IRCC has announced that foreign nationals/international students can no longer apply or extend their post-graduation work permit (PGWP) at the border which will be effective immediately. This will help to reduce “Flagpoling”.
What is Flagpoling?
Flagpoling refers to the practice where a foreign immigrant already in Canada exits and re-enters the country within 24 hours. This is done to access immigration services like obtaining or renewing a Post-Graduation Work Permit (PGWP) or completing the permanent residency process, bypassing the usual waiting period.

Effective April 30, 2024, Immigration, Refugees, and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) has increased the fees for all permanent residence applications. This change is part of a routine process, mandated every two years, to adjust fees for inflation. The last adjustment was in 2020, and this year’s increase aligns with legislative requirements.
Canadian immigration law allows IRCC to increase fees biennially to account for inflation. These adjustments ensure that immigration processes remain sustainable and reflect current economic conditions.
Key Changes to Permanent Residence Fees
Below is a breakdown of the old and new fees as of April 30, 2024:
