The government of Canada implemented certain changes to the PGWP (Post-graduation work permit) program as of 15th February 2024. Students who have completed a master\u2019s degree even for less than two years will also qualify for a 3-year PGWP provided they satisfy all other eligibility requirements. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

From 1st September 2024, students enrolled in licensing student programs are no longer eligible for a PGWP. In addition to this special measures for distance learning and PGWP validity have been extended till 31st August, 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Are All International Students Eligible for a PGWP?<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The candidates are eligible for a PGWP if they have graduated from a (DLI) Designated Learning Institution and want to stay temporarily in Canada for work. However, graduation from a DLI does not automatically make them eligible for a PGWP. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Eligibility for a Longer Post-Graduation Work Permit<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Graduates of two-year programs at PGWP-eligible DLIs are eligible for a three-year PGWP as are graduates of Master\u2019s degree programs for less than 2 years in length. In the case of a master\u2019s degree program if the program is less than 8 months then the candidates are not eligible for a PGWP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Processing Time of PGWP<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Candidates are allowed to work in Canada while waiting for the processing of their PGWP provided that they have submitted their application before their study permit has expired. From the date that they finish their study program, there is a 180-day window within which they must apply for their PGWP. They can apply for a PGWP from abroad if they leave Canada after completing their education.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
