Why not? Only you will need to apply to Visa Office outside of Canada.

Yes you can apply for a new study permit. Note that you won't get another PGWP, after you finish your course. only 1 to a customer

Why not? If master program is for 2 yrs why a student could not get a 3 yr work permit after graduation?

1. If you had read my answer, you will find that you can only get 1 PGWP. The OP has already received a PGWP and wont get another after his Master program.

If you had read PMM's answer AND done some proper reasearch you would have read this page http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/study/work-postgrad-who.asp and found the following information:

You are not eligible for the Post-Graduation Work Permit Program if you:

  • study in a program that is less than eight months long
    participate in a Canadian Commonwealth Scholarship Program funded by the Department of Foreign Affairs, Trade and Development Canada (DFATD)
  • participate in a Government of Canada Awards Program funded by DFATD
  • receive funding from the Canadian International Development Agency (CIDA)
  • participate in the Equal Opportunity Scholarship, Canada-Chile
  • participate in the Canada-China Scholars Exchanges Program
  • participate in the Organization of American States Fellowships Program
  • participate in a distance learning program either from abroad or from within Canada or
  • have previously been issued a Post-Graduation Work Permit following any other program of study.

Thank you. That is what had to be in the very first answer.

No it didn't. It's freely available on the cic website.

Those of us on here are supposedly current or future college/university students. RESEARCH and READING is going to be in all of our classes. Why not start now and RESEARCH the main official source for study permit, OCWP and PGWP?

It has also been answered here a multitude of times. This forum does have a search function.

EVERYTHING is available there. Then why have you ever bothered to answer any question? Just send the person to the site. ;D

However, if you BOTHER to answer GIVE the link. Nobody has to believe in anything he/she reads on the internet forums just because somebody saying something. ;)

I'm all for helping and pointing in the right direction. I don't like to spoon feed information. It's up to each and everyone to do their own "leg work" so to speak.
