My program started in September 2023, but now, following the new rules, my program is not eligible for PGWP. I won't apply for a study permit extension, as I have plenty of time to finish. However, I will send my study permit to get amended (add working conditions). Do you think if I send my study permit to get amended, even if I won't change my program of studies, it could negatively affect my PGWP?
I got an admission for 2 yr pg diploma course and study permit is approved before November, unfortunately my program is not listed in pgwp eligibility program list.so i want to know that should i change my course or not
In my case there is no other pg diploma course available in Conestoga College. Can I choose an undergraduate certificate program after graduation is it possible
I completed my first program on August 2024 and started my second course on September 2024 without taking a break. My study permit will end on Dec 31st, so I applied for an extension on Oct 13th and still waiting for the decision. Will I get 3 years of PGWP?
Hello. I am an international student in Canada since January 2023. I have taken 2 leave of absences so far which are authorized by my University which has DLI status. I am currently enrolled into the same program and i am still outside of Canada and planning to return in January 2025 as i am enrolled. If i want to change my DLI and apply for a new study permit, am i going to be affected? I am doing my bachelor of science in information technology at Concordia University of Edmonton. Please let me know what steps can i take since i only have 10 days 🙏
Hey! I enrolled in 1+1 course. My first program is under the PGWP approved list but the second one is not in the list. So I'm eligible for 3 years work permit or 1 year?
I have already updated my DLI number and contacted IRCC to confirm whether I need to change my study permit, and they informed me that no change is required. My Early Childhood Education and Development Diploma program will start in the January 2025 intake, and I plan to apply for a study permit extension. Based on this, am I eligible for a Post-Graduation Work Permit (PGWP)?
I landed here in September and i change my program that is stating in January which will be ending in duration of study permit . But my new program is not in the list of 966 course . But i dont need exptention because my program is ending in my study permit duration . Do I eligible for pgwp or not ?
Hi there I came to Canada on 2023 and it’s been almost a year my study permit will expire on march so I am planing to apply for study permit extension. When I am applying study permit extension they ask me attestation letter how do I reslove that I don’t have any attestation letter.
Hi, my course started in September 2023 (hospitality management, 2 years), but I changed it after 2 semesters and started my new course (business, 2 years) from May 2024. It is set to finish in December 2024. I want to know will I be eligible for this work permit in this new policy because I will file my study permit extension in January 2025 because my study permit is ending in August 2025, but my new course will finish in December 2025. I took the business course before November 2024 but I am going to file my study permit extension after November 1 so please tell me will this policy affect me or not.
I started my first course on September 2023 and finished it on april. I started my second course on September 2024 and applied for a study permit extension on October 2024 and waiting for a decision on my application. Both courses are not in the pgwp list. Will i get pgwp for 3 years or should i leave canada after study with no pgwp?
Hello, I am a student in who already finished non pgwp program that started in Jan 2024 and have already applied for study permit extension before Nov 1st for second program starting Jan 2025 that is also non pgwp list. Now will I be affected as I did what IRCC had asked, if I change anything now, I will come under new rules. Please clarify.
I started a Political Science program in may 2023(never changed my course and college in between) and did not took break, in Public college. I need to extend my study permit in january as it is getting expired on the same day when my course i getting finished. Will i get pgwp for 3 years???
When I came to Canada April 2024 I changed my course in the same college before college started ( both are business courses) and this course is one year and it finished in December 2025. And now i took a new course in January and I applied for an extension before November 1st, and also the course in the cip list. Do I'm eligible for 3 year pgwp
So, I completed my first program in September 2024 and got my study permit extended before November 1st 2024 for my second program starting in January 2025. But it is not PGWP eligible, so does it mean I have to change my program?
But my program is starting in a few weeks time, can you please share the source or provide a clarity on where it is mentioning about this issue (regarding this possible rule affecting students depending on when they start their program). Because from the limited sources that I could find they have only mentioned if a student switches programs than what is mentioned in the original letter of acceptance and then needs to extend their study permit even if it is applied before November 1st, then only this rule will apply, is what I have heard.
Kindly note there are lot of regulation changes are happening. If you are attending Jan 2025 intake then you must be safe as new public policy says you only need DLI change not even new study permit. 🫣 So many policy update. Back to Back. CIC is on holiday mood 😬🤣
My second program started on May 2024 unfortunately I’ve extend my study permit for 1 semester as I’ve to reappear for 1 subject. Am I eligible for extension and will I get 3 years of PGWP ( I’ve already done 1 course this is my second course) please reply. Thank you
I came to Canada on April 2024 and then I changed my college and course and enrolled in new college on 6 sep 2024 and in future I need to extend my study permit to complete the last semester of the same course. Am I eligible for pgwp
Hi, I came in May 2023, change the college but course was same diploma in accounting, name would differ but its accounting related. I don’t need study permit extension as I will be able to complete with current study permit deadline. Should I worry? Because change in DLI and will be applying work permit in September 2025. Will I get 3 years or not? Please help!

Study Permit holders and applicants with applications submitted prior to November 1st 2024 will be excluded from this new PGWP condition.

Depends on when you are going to start the second program. If it is by/before Jan 2025 intake then you are good.
I have already updated my DLI number and contacted IRCC to confirm whether I need to change my study permit, and they informed me that no change is required.
