hi, i am currently on f-1 visa in u.s and going to school here due to change of rules. i am looking foward to move to canada. just wanted to know is there any way to move to canada on work visa instead of study visa? i have not completed my degree so far. but i want to move there for work and study. i do have two years of management experience but was not paid it was my cousin's business. i dont know if anyone here can help me regarding this topic

thanks,
 
Without paid work experience - your only option at this time for moving to Canada is a study permit.
 
I have paid work experience of 4yrs in US and finished my masters in US.
I am planning to move to canada but as my university does not fall under regional accreditation WES is not considering my masters degree valid.
Even though i have 4 years work experience i am still not eligible in express entry.
So i am applying for student visa currently.
Is there a way i can get work permit instead of student visa?

how to know whether the university will be included in REGIONAL ACCREDITATION WES? please advise. thank you.
 
I would check in WES website.
Else call WES and ask them about canadian equivalent for your university.
Which univ did you go to let me know. Incase i have idea i can tell you.
