Canada extends international students’ work permits for 18 months. ‘We’re seeing that the same crisis is repeating over and over,’ critics say
Under a new measure, international graduates with expired postgraduate work permit in 2022 and 2023 will be able to extend their work authorization for another 18 months.


AOR to PPR under 3 weeks, 5 year PGWP after Lambda degree, this country is a joke.

Or we need more PhD uber drivers but I'm just not aware.
Great! Now students are already asking for a guaranteed PR. They live with 10 people in a home by paying $350/month each- reducing the affordabilty for everyone else. This will encourage them even more.

so, if my French is currently 0, I can get 4 extra points by learning French just for two months?
If you do 20 hours per week for French. Get a tutor that's not just a French teacher, but can actually help with TEF/TCF (teaching french vs teaching for exam are different) - then you can possibly do it.

I've seen people get C1s in 6-9 months too. So, B1 in all in 2 months should be possible. Just make sure your French teacher isn't beating around the bush. Each week will be critical then.

I was able to get C2 in Reading, C1 in Listening, B2 in Writing and B2 in Speaking after 10 months, took me 2 attempts at the exam though, 1st one I had a B1 in speaking. I only studied with teachers for about 50 days (after I failed the 1st exam). I was also working full time, but studying about 4 hours of French per day. I think that the teachers made a difference because I hired several tutors from different countries which helped me to understand and be able to speak to French speakers from Africa and Europe.

Unfortunately I’ve lost 11 points due to age now. However, I was sent an NOI From Ontario which I’ve now applied to
It's been two years. Fuck mate, but glad you got it.

Yeah I forgot the TEF score needed for that but I remember it's not hard to do in 2-3 months if you focus. Google/ChatGPT it.

Bloody hell!!

May be I should ask my father to do a degree in Canada, so he can stay here. A degree in philosophy or asian studies or some other liberal arts shit can not hurt. Anyways after coming of ChatGPT-4, the actual work required is small.

He can do all Bachelor, Masters and Phd in Canada and stay here for 9 years and followed by ever renewing PGWP....

We are so needlessly waiting for PGP.

So when you moving to construction business then? You know what GPT-X means for us programmers.

I wonder how companies will hire engineers now. It makes most interview questions obsolete. I mean sure, you still have to have enough knowledge to ask the right questions and validate the answer, but god damn the game has changed.

Good news is outland apps push 19 days from AOR to PPR now lol (check @iSaidGoodDay 's timeline). You had to wait longer but it's easy mode now so if you still wanna go to Canada you better start packing.

How do you like UK so far?

Hi, I have studied ACCA then UOL master. WES ECA gives me master degree equivalent and 4 yrs bachelor for my ACCA studies. But for my ACCA (I started it in 2011 in my home country and the rest of the papers from 2012 in Singapore). So for ACCA studies, country of study which one should I choose? Singapore? or split into 2 countries by date between my home country and Singapore?

Or should I just include my UOL master degree (highest degree which i claim points only) in the education history but include WES ACCA report and transcript in the upload ?

Kindly would love to know your take on this. thank you.

19 days?? Tell me this isn’t you been trademark sarcastic? Hahahaha
Anyways I just confirmed by checking his timeline. Whoa!!! Alot has really changed. That’s great news tho.

The UK has been really good so far, I’m currently working for a company that would switch me to a work VISA at the end of my studies. It’s nice but Canada is my first choice as always. Especially because of the ease of PR and the fact I can practice my profession without having to go through school and exams again like the UK requires.

whats up with you these days? Where you now? I know you never really fancied Canada
