Work while studies are differed?

[Nick00]

hi I came to Canada on a study permit and I should have started school in September but I missed my first payment for school because I came up a few days late. I have been offered a seat in their next intake session so I will be going to school in the winter. Is it possible for me to continue to work mean while I'm waiting to start school?

No - you absolutely cannot work. You can't work until you begin classes full time in January.

If you work before January, you'll be working illegally and will be in violate of your study permit. This means CIC could cancel your study permit and force you to leave Canada.

Well I started the job before I got the differed. Will it still be an issue if I stopped working now?

You weren't allowed to start school until you started classes full time. So if you never actually studied, you've been working illegally since the start. You need to stop working immediately and hope it doesn't become a problem later.

Thanks I really wasn't aware of that.
