Post Graduation work permit

You may be allowed to work temporarily or even permanently in Canada after completing your programme of studies.

PGWPs (post-graduation work permits) are open work permits granted to overseas students who have completed a programme of study in Canada. PGWPs allow the bearer to work for any employer in Canada for as many hours as they like. PGWPs are good for eight to three years and are an excellent opportunity to gain significant job experience in Canada. Once an applicant has worked in Canada, he or she has a multitude of options for obtaining permanent residency in Canada.
