Work Permits for International Students
A Work Permit is not necessary for the international student to work part-time within the campus that they are studying. If the student wishes to work off-campus, they will need to first obtain a Work Permit.
Post-Graduate Work Permit
International Students who are graduating from a Canadian college or university are eligible to obtain a work permit, limited to the length of full-time education completed, for a maximum of 4 years.
