Canada Post-Graduation Work Permit FAQs

The Post-Graduation Work Permit (PGWP) allows students who have graduated from eligible schools to gain valuable Canadian work experience.

The length of your PGWP depends on the level and duration of your study programme, as well as the expiry date of your passport, whichever comes first.

To be eligible for a post-graduation work permit (PGWP), you must meet all eligibility requirements.

You must have:

  • Graduates with a bachelor’s degree, college diploma, master’s degree or doctoral degree
  • Completed a program of study at a PGWP-eligible institution that was at least 8 months long
  • Maintained full-time status as a student in Canada during each semester of your study program

You would need to provide the following for your post-graduation work permit:

  1. Proof that you have completed your studies
  2. Proof that you are enrolled in full-time studies for a program that was 8 months or longer
  3. English language proficiency
  4. Medical (if you want to work in an occupational setting that requires a medical exam, you will need to complete an upfront medical)

Processing fee: N239,400

Application fee: $255CAD

From 80 to 180 business days after submission.

You have up to 180 days after you graduate to apply for a PGWP.

If your study permit expires before you apply, you will need to pay an extra $389.75 CAD to IRCC to restore your status as a student. So, it is advised to apply before your study permit expires.
