Depending on your program length, your PGWP can be valid for up to three years, giving you the opportunity to work for any employer in Canada and build a pathway toward permanent residency.

Eligibility Highlights

• Completion of a full-time program at least 8 months long at a recognized DLI
• Maintained full-time student status during your program (with limited exceptions)
• Applied within 180 days of receiving your final transcript and confirmation of program completion
