Here are the highlights:

• Canada’s immigration minister announced changes this week to the scoring system used to select candidates for permanent residency
• Under the new rules, fewer points will be awarded for qualified job offers and international graduates will receive additional points in recognition of their having completed post-secondary studies in Canada
• The Canadian immigration ministry projects that this will increase the numbers of international students invited to apply for permanent residency by about a third
