Working while studying in Canada is one of the many benefits of choosing Canada as your study destination, but there are a few things to keep in mind before you start earning. Without a work visa, most overseas students in Canada are permitted to work up to 20 hours per week and full-time during specified breaks. Working while you study can help you sustain yourself and meet new people while also allowing you to develop the contacts and experience that will help you stand out in the job market later.
Eligibility to work and study in Canada
Students with a study permit in Canada who are enrolled full-time in a Designated Learning Institution (DLI) can work off campus without a work permit. This implies you can work anywhere in Canada for any employer in any occupation. If they wish, international students can work on campus.
Working off campus refers to employment with a company that is not affiliated with the institution or college. Working on campus can imply working for the university or college, a faculty member (as a research assistant, for example), yourself (self-employed, working on campus), a student organization, or a private contractor providing services on campus, such as a gym or restaurant.
Internship Opportunities
As part of the curriculum, several academic programs require you to obtain job experience. You will need to apply for both a work and a study permit in this situation. To be eligible, you must demonstrate that your anticipated employment is an integral component of your academic program and acquire a certified letter from a responsible academic officer at the university. Unfortunately, whether you study English or French as a second language (ESL or FSL) or take general interest or preparatory courses, you will not be eligible.
