加拿大边境服务局（CBSA）近期宣布增派1000名警员，并使用人工智能工具识别非法移民。
加拿大加大了对印度无证工人的打击力度，在各城市开展突击检查、逮捕和驱逐出境行动。随着印度公民被驱逐出境的人数不断增加，CBSA扩大了执法力度，打击签证欺诈和非法就业。
加拿大移民局今年在全国范围内加大了对印度无证工人的突击检查力度，这是近年来最严厉的执法行动之一。从卡尔加里的建筑工地到多伦多和温哥华周边的餐馆和农场，自8月以来，数十名印度公民（大多是签证逾期居留的前学生或临时工）被拘留或收到驱逐出境通知。
10月15日，警方在卡尔加里一个活动中心建筑工地进行了一次大规模突击检查，拘留了四名无证工人，其中三人是印度公民，目前他们面临驱逐出境程序。9月份，在多伦多皮尔区也开展了类似的行动，发现了50多名印度工人，其中许多来自旁遮普省，他们在学生签证过期后没有有效许可证就职。被发现雇用他们的雇主每次违规将面临最高5万加元的罚款。
加拿大边境服务局（CBSA）将这些行动与一项更广泛的“内陆执法突击行动”联系起来，该行动旨在打击非法就业和走私网络。据加拿大媒体报道，与2024年相比，突击检查工作场所的次数增加了近25%。
加拿大边境服务局 (CBSA) 近期宣布增派 1000 名警员，并使用人工智能工具识别高风险案件，旨在加快遣返无证移民，并瓦解人口走私网络。该机构的 2025-26 年计划将签证逾期居留、犯罪记录和难民申请失败列为首要任务。
印度人受影响最严重
印度公民是此次打击行动中受害最严重的群体之一。官方数据显示，印度是加拿大强制遣返人数最多的国家，仅次于墨西哥。2024 年 4 月至 2025 年 8 月期间，共有 2209 名印度人被驱逐出境，其中包括自愿离境和强制遣返，主要原因是许可证过期和庇护申请被拒。
截至 2025 年 7 月，被强制遣返的印度公民人数已达 1891 人，这意味着加拿大的遣返人数将比去年的总数至少高出 20%。移民和难民委员会报告称，2024年印度人提交了超过1.5万份庇护申请，其中许多申请因缺乏迫害证据而被拒绝。
政府估计，预计今年将离开加拿大的120万非永久居民中，多达四分之一可能是无证印度移民，但具体数字尚不清楚。
突击搜查与走私和签证欺诈有关
随着人们对涉及印度国民的走私网络和签证欺诈日益担忧，执法力度不断加大。加拿大广播公司(CBC)今年早些时候的调查发现，TikTok上有一些提供印度人偷渡美加边境的在线广告，2025年上半年在魁北克省逮捕了1000多人。9月，加拿大当局逮捕了费尼尔·帕特尔(Fenil Patel)，他被控经营一个走私团伙，该团伙与2022年曼尼托巴省埃默森附近一个印度家庭的死亡事件有关。
这个问题还延伸到学生签证滥用。 2024年末，印度和加拿大当局揭露了一个由教育中介和私立学院组成的网络，该网络被指控帮助学生使用伪造文件进入加拿大。因此，加拿大移民、难民和公民部（IRCC）在2025年吊销了超过5000份印度公民的学习许可。
工人遭受剥削
调查还揭露了对无证印度工人的剥削。今年4月，加拿大广播公司（CBC）在温尼伯的报道披露，印度和巴西移民被虚假工作邀请引诱，被迫非法工作。在纽芬兰，几名印度工人表示，他们每人向律师支付了高达2.4万美元的费用，律师承诺提供有效许可，但这些许可从未兑现。
加拿大边境服务局与印度外交部协调，通过包机加快了遣返工作。今年2月，在一次联合行动中，104名印度公民被驱逐出境。
未来之路
对于加拿大境内约5万至10万名无证印度裔移民来说，当前的执法浪潮营造了一种恐惧和不确定的氛围。社区组织报告称，签证过期的国际学生和临时工的焦虑情绪日益加剧。
随着加拿大边境服务局（CBSA）部署更多警员和更智能的监控工具，扩大其覆盖范围，加拿大的无证印度裔移民群体正准备迎接艰难的一年。
加拿大全国围捕+强制驱逐! 多伦多大批留学生、餐馆工被查! 社区恐慌!
加拿大移民当局今年大幅加紧针对无身份印度劳工的全国性突击行动，被形容为近年来最强力的执法风暴之一。据Indian Express报道，从卡尔加里的建筑工地，到多伦多和温哥华周边的餐厅与农场，自8月以来，已有数十名印度公民被拘捕或收到递解令。他们中大多为前留学生或临时工签证逾期者。
10月15日，加拿大边境服务局（CBSA）突袭了卡尔加里一处活动中心施工现场，逮捕4名无证工人，其中3人来自印度，目前正面临遣返程序。
在多伦多皮尔区，9月的类似行动中发现超过50名印度工人在学生签证过期后非法受雇。他们多数来自旁遮普邦，被查雇主每宗违规最高可被罚款5万加元。
CBSA表示，这些行动属于更广泛的“国内执法风暴（inland enforcement blitz）”，重点打击非法就业及偷渡网络。报道显示，2025年未经通报的职场突查次数较2024年增加近25%。为加速遣返及打击人口走私，CBSA宣布增派1000名执法人员，并启用人工智能（AI）工具锁定高风险案件。该机构2025-26年度工作计划将签证逾期、刑事纪录、被拒难民申请者列为首要目标。
报道称，印度公民是此次打击行动中受影响最严重的群体之一。官方数据显示，印度在加拿大强制遣返来源国中排名第二，仅次于墨西哥。从2024年4月至2025年8月，已有2,209名印度人被遣返，包括自愿离境与强制驱逐，主要原因是签证过期与庇护申请被拒。
截至2025年7月，被强制遣返的印度人数已达1,891人，预计全年总数将比去年增加至少20%。2024年，印度公民在加拿大提出的庇护申请超过1.5万宗，其中大部分因缺乏迫害证据而遭拒。
政府估计，今年预计有120万非永久居民将离开加拿大，其中约四分之一可能是无身份印度移民，但具体数据仍不明确。目前，加拿大估计有5万至10万名无身份印度移民。随着执法力度升级，社区组织报告称，签证过期的留学生与临时工群体焦虑急剧上升。随着更多执法人员与AI监控系统投入运作，加拿大的印度无证移民群体正面临前所未有的寒冬。
Canada intensifies crackdown on undocumented Indian workers
The Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) recently announced the deployment of 1,000 additional officers and the use of artificial intelligence tools to identify illegal immigrants.
The CBSA’s expanded enforcement drive targets visa fraud and illegal employment amid rising removals of Indian nationals.Canada’s immigration authorities have stepped up nationwide raids on undocumented Indian workers this year, marking one of the most aggressive enforcement drives in recent years. From construction sites in Calgary to restaurants and farms around Toronto and Vancouver, dozens of Indian nationals, mostly former students or temporary workers who overstayed their visas, have been detained or issued deportation notices since August.
A major raid on October 15 at a Calgary event-centre construction site led to the detention of four undocumented workers, three of them Indian nationals, who now face removal proceedings. In Toronto’s Peel region, similar operations in September uncovered more than 50 Indian workers, many from Punjab, employed without valid permits after their student visas expired. Employers caught hiring them face fines of up to 50,000 Canadian dollars per violation.
The Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) has linked these operations to a broader “inland enforcement blitz” that targets illegal employment and smuggling networks. Unannounced workplace inspections have risen by nearly 25 per cent compared to 2024, according to Canadian media reports.
Indians among most affected
Indian nationals are among the largest groups caught up in this crackdown. Official data show that India ranks second after Mexico for enforced removals from Canada. Between April 2024 and August 2025, 2,209 Indians were deported, including voluntary departures and forced removals, driven mainly by expired permits and rejected asylum claims.
By July 2025, forced removals of Indian nationals had already reached 1,891, putting Canada on track to exceed last year’s total by at least 20 per cent. The Immigration and Refugee Board reported over 15,000 asylum claims by Indians in 2024, many of which were rejected for lack of proof of persecution.
Government estimates suggest that of the 1.2 million non-permanent residents expected to leave Canada this year, as many as a quarter may be undocumented Indian migrants though precise figures remain unavailable.
Raids tied to smuggling and visa fraud
The increased enforcement follows growing concern about smuggling networks and visa fraud involving Indian nationals. CBC investigations earlier this year revealed online advertisements on TikTok offering to smuggle Indians across the USA-Canada border, with more than 1,000 people apprehended in Quebec in the first half of 2025. In September, Canadian authorities arrested Fenil Patel, accused of running a smuggling ring connected to the 2022 deaths of an Indian family near Emerson, Manitoba.
The issue extends to student visa misuse. In late 2024, Indian and Canadian authorities exposed a network of education agents and private colleges accused of helping students enter Canada on fraudulent documents. As a result, Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) revoked over 5,000 study permits of Indian nationals in 2025.
Workers caught in exploitation
Investigations have also exposed exploitation of undocumented Indian workers. In April, a CBC report from Winnipeg revealed that Indian and Brazilian migrants were lured with fake job offers and made to work illegally. In Newfoundland, several Indian workers said they paid up to $24,000 each to lawyers promising valid permits that never came through.
The CBSA, in coordination with India’s Ministry of External Affairs, has accelerated repatriations through chartered flights. In February, 104 Indian nationals were deported in one such joint operation.
The road ahead
For an estimated 50,000 to 100,000 undocumented Indians in Canada, the current wave of enforcement has created a climate of fear and uncertainty. Community organisations report growing anxiety among international students and temporary workers whose visas have lapsed.
As the CBSA expands its reach with more officers and smarter surveillance tools, Canada’s undocumented Indian community is bracing for a difficult year ahead.
