Start Your Career in Canada After Graduation
Graduating from a Canadian educational institution is a huge achievement — and the PGWP allows you to gain valuable work experience in Canada. This experience is not only beneficial for your career but also crucial for your future permanent residence application.
To be eligible, you must have completed an eligible program at a Designated Learning Institution (DLI) in Canada, typically lasting at least 8 months.
Common Mistakes
Common mistakes include missing the application deadline (you must apply within 180 days of receiving your final marks) or attending a non-eligible educational institution, which can lead to a denial.
