Citizenship and Immigration Canada's novel Post-Graduation Employment visa provides eligible foreign students graduating from a participating post-secondary Canadian institution with the thrilling opportunity to gain Canadian work experience related to their field of studies.

Once granted, work permit holders can gain Canadian experience and put their recently gained knowledge to use in the Canadian labour market. They may also be eligible for the new Canadian Experience program for permanent residence. A work permit under the Post-Graduation Work visa is granted for the duration equating up to the length of a student's study program.

DO I QUALIFY FOR A POST-GRADUATION EMPLOYMENT VISA TO CANADA?

Our Free Temporary Work Visa Eligibility Assessment is designed to instantly determine if you are eligible to apply for a Temporary Work visa to Canada. This assessment uses the criteria set by Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC). It is the most comprehensive and technologically advanced online Migration Assessment tool available.

POST-GRADUATION EMPLOYMENT VISA REQUIREMENTS

To be eligible for a work permit under this program, applicants must meet all of the following requirements:

  • Possess a valid study permit;
  • Have studied full-time and maintained satisfactory academic standing in their program of study at a participating institution for at least six out of the twelve months preceding their application to work off campus;
  • Have applied for the off-campus work permit program at a participating institution;
  • Have been, and continue to be, registered as a full-time student in a program other than English or French as a second language (ESL/FSL); and
  • Continue to fulfil the terms and conditions of their study permit and work permit, if applicable.

Applicants from non-eligible Canadian institutions cannot participate in this program.


POST-GRADUATION EMPLOYMENT VISA ENTITLEMENTS

Once a Post-Graduation Employment visa has been issued, applicants will be allowed to live and work in Canada for a specified period of time, generally between 6 months and 2 years. Their spouse and children may be eligible to work and study during the stay. While dependent on the specific job offer, it may be possible to extend the visa if they wish to continue working in Canada.

A Post-Graduation Employment visa may assist applicants towards permanent residence and may be processed in tandem, which could allow applicants the opportunity to stay in Canada once the application has been approved.
