New news about work and study permit in Canada
According to the announcement of the Canadian Immigration Department dated May 23, 2020, incomplete applications for study permit and graduate work permit (PGWP) are accepted. Some students in Canada or people applying to study in Canada have difficulty in providing additional documents to apply for a study or work permit due to the closure of educational centers or immigration services.
These documents or procedures generally include biometrics, medical examinations and passport delivery. Due to the current situation caused by the Corona epidemic, the Canadian Immigration Department has announced that applications for study and student work permits will not be rejected due to defective documents, and the case will remain open until additional documents are received.
Also, if the students have applied for a work permit before the validity of the study permit expires, they are allowed to start working before receiving this permit. Also, if students are forced to study part-time due to the consequences of the Corona epidemic in the winter and summer of 2020, they still have the conditions to obtain a work permit (PGWP).
Student work is of particular importance because students will have the opportunity to gain work experience in Canada after completing their studies, and after one year of employment, they can apply for permanent residence in the Express Entry system through provincial immigration programs or work experience in Canada take action.
