I have a student visa and I don't want to study anymore.

[Figlian]

Hi! Everyone....

I have a student visa that will expire on 2017. I am taking my post-graduate studies here in Canada for almost 1 and a half year already. I don't want to continue my studies but i want to work rather than going back to my country. Can I change my status into working visa? Is it possible for me to apply for working visa even I'm not a student anymore? Do I need to apply here in Canada or in my home country?

Please help me.

Thanks!

Sure - you can apply for a work permit.

You'll need to start by finding an employer willing to offer you a full time job. That employer will then have to obtain an approved Labour Market Opinion. Once the LMO has been approved, you can apply for a closed work permit.
