I'm planning to pursue certificate course for 33 weeks in Saskatchewan at SIAST.
My questions are:
1) The work that you do while working, will that be counted as your work experience (Talking in reference to the work outside campus after initial 6 months )?
2) So when do you apply for the student work permit? (2 sub-questions)
> For working off campus permit after first 6 months? (which month should this permit be applied after starting of course )
> For working anywhere else permit (1 year permit = course duration), when your course is complete and college gives you successful completion acknowledgement then? (this probably has to be applied before ending of course, right? because otherwise you would be deported back to your country on completion? so when to apply for this work permit)
3) Also if you have been working for 960 hours=6 months (completed) then when should you apply for the extension of permit or pr if possible?
and when applied for how fast does it gets processed?

Please answer all the questions .... these are like the broken links of knowledge in my mind whose answers i seek to find to be at peace in Canada, Saskatchewan.
All these questions are because a friend of mine is there in Saskatchewan. He is there since 3 years still working at McD's because no PR. He A/F PR but the office closed and then his application was moved to some place else. I'm an IT professional and i don't wanna get there and be stuck in a McD's or KFC waiting for this PR.
 
your are going very legal side .,,not even a guy in CIC can answer that.,,.,exact date no way,,.haahhaha.,.you just have to go with the stream.,.,
it just a gamble.,but if you are doing any certificate or diploma ur part time work hours will be considered in 960 hours.,
 
u have 90 days after completion of studies for application of PGWP :)

For 8 month course, u will get visa for more than one year. approx 1.5 yrs. You have to complete your course in that period, If u failed to do so, you can extend your visa. after successful completion of your course your can apply for PGWPP of duration same as your course duration
