Are you an international student dreaming of a work permit after graduation in Canada? You've come to the right place! Let's break down what you need to do to qualify for a post-graduation work permit (PGWP) so you can kickstart your career in this beautiful country.

First things first: ensure that you're studying at a designated learning institution (DLI). Only DLIs can give you the letter of acceptance you need for your Canadian study permit.

Once you're settled in, make sure you're enrolled in a program that's PGWP-eligible. Remember, the PGWP allows you to work for most employers and can be a stepping stone towards applying for permanent residency in Canada!

To check if your school is a DLI, head over to the official IRCC DLI List. Just select your province and use the search box to find your institution.

And here's a tip: PGWP-eligible programs now have some language and field-of-study requirements starting from November 1, 2024. Make sure to check if your program falls under those requirements as it can impact your eligibility!

So, if you're ready to take your next steps in Canada, ensure you're equipped with the right information about your DLI status and PGWP eligibility. It's all about planning ahead!
