On May 16, 2024,  the Government of Canada extended immigration measures to help immediate family members of Canadian citizens and permanent residents who left Sudan.

These measures, valid until October 27, 2024, were implemented following the violence that broke out on April 15, 2023.

With these measures, qualifying relatives from abroad can receive a fee-exempt temporary resident permit (TRP) to ease their journey to Canada.

Upon arrival in Canada, they can apply for a fee-exempt open work or study permit and even submit a fee-exempt application for permanent residence under the family class.
