Similarly, candidates who graduate from a study program of 2 years or more are entitled to a 3-year post-graduation work permit. The new permit e4454 is to increase the duration of PGWPs issued to foreign students. This petition demands to increase the PGWP to 2 years for a study program of 8-12 months and to 5 years for a study program of 2 years or more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-pale-ocean-gradient-background has-background\"><a href=\"https:\/\/leverageedu.com\/learn\/study-abroad-top-3-countries-offering-nursing-courses-news-2024-03\/\"><strong>Top 3 Countries Offering Nursing Courses<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-basis-of-petition\"><span id=\"basis-of-petition\">Basis of Petition<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Foreign students who have completed a 2-year program since 2017 have been granted a 4-and-a-half-year PGWP.
