Program delivery update: COVID-19 – Post-Graduation Work Permit Program (PGWPP): Students graduating outside of Canada

July 28, 2021

IRCC has updated instructions to clarify that students who graduate outside of Canada are not required to hold or have held a valid study permit within 180 days of applying for the post-graduation work permit, and that only the time they spent studying online after their study permit application was received will count toward the length of their post-graduation work permit.
