Hi,
I'm on a scheduled summer break from my university. I had taken 1 course of 1 month in June which I've completed. Now I have remaining 1 month of my break (August) with no course, means I'm free for that month.I wanted to know if I can work full time in that. Does it make any difference that I had taken up 1 course in June?

Thank you!

How many hours can you work off-campus?
You can only start working in Canada when you start your study program. You can’t work before your studies begin.

During regular school semesters:

  • you can work up to 20 hours
During scheduled breaks in your school year, like during winter and summer holidays:

  • you can work full-time
  • you can’t work during a break that comes before you start your very first school semester
If your program doesn’t have scheduled academic breaks, you can’t work more than 20 hours per week.

you're on a scheduled break so it shouldnt matter, if you're unsure then speak with the immigration office in your university.
