What is PGWP?<\/span>

The Post-Graduation Work Permit (PGWP) is a policy of the Canadian government aimed at attracting international students and retaining them as skilled workers. This type of visa allows graduates to work full-time in any field in Canada after completing their studies, without needing a job offer from a local employer. However, this assumes that your study permit is still valid.<\/p>

Through the Post-Graduation Work Permit program, you can obtain an open work permit for up to three years. The exact validity period of this work permit is based on the length of the program you graduated from. This permit allows graduates to work full-time anywhere in Canada without any restrictions on the type of work.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n <\/section>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
