POST-GRADUATION WORK PERMIT

Many international students are eligible to apply for a Post-Graduation Work Permit after completing their studies. The PGWP allows graduates to stay in Canada and gain Canadian work experience.

If you graduated from a Canadian Designated Learning Institution (DLI), you may be eligible to apple for a Post-Graduation Work Permit.

 

At Calver Immigration Consulting Inc., we assess: 

  • The educational program you completed;

  • The person’s adherence to the education requirements for a PGWP;

  • The person's status in Canada;

  • The job being offered (if applicable); 

  • The likelihood of the job leading to Permanent Residency at the end of the PGWP
