Study in Canada
Studying in Canada can be a pathway to immigrate to the country permanently. If you are an international student who has completed a program of study at a designated learning institution (DLI) in Canada, you may be eligible to apply for a post-graduation work permit (PGWP).
A PGWP is a document issued by Immigration, Refugees, and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) that allows you to work in Canada after you graduate. It is valid for the same length as your program of study, up to a maximum of three years. With a PGWP, you can work in any occupation and in any part of Canada.
​
To be eligible for a PGWP, you must:
-
Have completed a full-time program of study at a DLI in Canada that lasted at least eight months
-
Have maintained valid student status while studying in Canada
-
Have received a written confirmation of your program completion from your DLI
-
Have applied for a PGWP within 180 days of receiving written confirmation of your program completion
After you have worked in Canada for a certain period of time, you may be eligible to apply for permanent residency through the Canadian Experience Class (CEC) program or another immigration program. The CEC is a program that allows individuals with skilled work experience in Canada to apply for permanent residency. To be eligible for the CEC, you must have at least one year of skilled work experience in Canada within the last three years.
