I have a dilemma. I applied for the PGWP at the end of August. I haven't worked since I have completed my program. I recently travelled to the U.S. to see my family and was admitted back to Canada based on my Study Permit and student visa because both of them are still valid. Now this link clearly indicates that a person can work while waiting on the PGWP http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/helpcentre/answer.asp?qnum=1181&top=15
However, the following link says that if you travelled outside Canada "You can’t work until you get your post-graduation work permit." http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/helpcentre/answer.asp?qnum=1309&top=15
I am confused if I can work or not? I found a job but don't know if it is safe to start or better to wait for the PGWP. Can someone explain please?
