Immigrants from all around the world come here to become Canadian citizen. Studying here in Canada is the first step. Graduates and Post-graduates from here are eligible for post-secondary work permit which is normally issued for the same period of time for which you study (not less than 8 months) in any designated university or college in Canada and if your study is of 2 years or more, you get a work permit for 3 years. You must apply within 90 days after written confirmation of completion of your study.
Full time students are authorized to work 20 hr/week during academic sessions and full-time during holidays (40 Hrs/week).
The work permit is your second step towards becoming Canadian citizen as this allows you to gain Canadian work experience and under certain circumstances this Canadian experience helps you to become a Permanent residence as it gives you some additional scores under Comprehensive Ranking System in your Express Entry profile and sometimes it helps you to apply under selected Provincial Nomination Program which otherwise might not be possible, for other applicants from outside Canada.
