‘Canadian Snowbird Act’ proposed in U.S. Congress

  • U.S. Lawmakers introduced the Canadian Snowbird Visa Act on April 29, 2025, to extend Canadian visitors' stays without a visa from 180 to 240 days.
  • This bill responds to declining Canadian visits amid U.S. Immigration crackdowns, new registration rules, and strained Canada-U.S. Relations.
  • The act targets Canadians aged 50 and over who maintain homes in Canada and own or lease U.S. Residences, aiming to boost local economies and tourism.
  • Republican sponsors say the bill will support job growth and economic revival, while experts note potential healthcare and tax impacts for some Canadians.
  • If passed, the bill could encourage longer Canadian stays in the U.S., aiding economic recovery, but it may affect a small group and raise fiscal concerns in Canada.
