The Post-Graduation Work Permit allows international graduates from eligible Canadian institutions to work in Canada after completing their studies. It is an open work permit and a key pathway toward permanent residence.

Eligibility depends on program length, institution type, and study compliance. PGWP holders can gain Canadian work experience that supports Express Entry, PNP, or other permanent residence programs.

WorkSettle supports graduates in understanding PGWP eligibility, timelines, and how to align employment with immigration goals.
