International graduates face growing permit rejections due to confusing language requirements on the federal immigration website. Vital details about the mandatory language test remain difficult to find when applying for post-graduate work permits (PGWP). The online application survey fails to flag the test requirement on automated checklists. Applicants often miss the rule because the information stays hidden inside expandable boxes without distinct fonts or colours. Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) recently updated some web pages after initial reports highlighted the issue. However, the lack of clear warnings continues to cause significant problems for self-applying candidates.
