Graduation is closer than you think — and so is your PGWP application.
The Post-Graduation Work Permit is how many international students move from studying in Canada to working here, but the rules around eligibility and timing catch people off guard every year. This session walks you through the whole picture: what a PGWP is and what it lets you do, who qualifies, how long your permit could be valid for, and the window you have to apply after your program ends.
We'll spend time on the question we hear most often — whether you can work while your application is being processed — and what your status looks like in that in-between period.
We'll also do a live walkthrough of setting up the application online, so you can see the forms and the steps before you sit down to do your own.
Come with your questions. We'll leave time to answer them.
