iciHaiti - FLASH : Barely 3% of asylum seekers in Quebec have obtained a work permit
Out of 10,246 asylum seekers who entered Québec illegally last summer, mainly Haitians fleeing the United States for fear of deportation in January 2018 if the Trump administration does not extend the TPS status https://www.haitilibre.com/en/news-22604-haiti-flash-renewal-of-tps-uncertain-58-000-haitians-at-risk-of-expulsion-from-the-usa.html , the Federal Government in Ottawa has so far granted just over 300 work permits according to Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada.

In addition, these permits were granted to requests made before July. In September, the time required to process an online application was 84 days and 105 days for a paper application. Since October, Ottawa says it has accelerated the processing of requests and promised to offer a service in 30 days...

n the meantime, migrants have to provide for themselves with Quebec social assistance of just over $600, which is very little to survive in Canada.
