I. Signs of graduation works

International students studying in designated institutions of Immigration Canada can apply for a graduation work visa (PGWP) after graduation. The validity period of graduation work visa is long or short. If the project time is less than eight months, it is impossible to successfully apply for a work visa. If the project study time is more than eight months but less than two years, the effective time for applying for a work permit will be the same as the project study time; After studying for more than two years, you can apply for a three-year work permit.

It turns out that Canada can only apply for a graduation work visa once. However, since 2020, the federal government has considered it difficult for many graduate work visa holders to find jobs because of the epidemic, so this year, on June 8, 65438, a new policy was introduced, that is, foreign students whose work visas have expired or will expire soon were allowed to apply for new work visas with the validity period of 18 months! The extension of the work visa this time is an exception, which can be said to be a timely help for the majority of international students.

Second, the internship logo

Studying in Canada, if the school course has CO-OP and needs to be completed before graduation, then you must apply for the corresponding internship visa after obtaining the study visa. Generally speaking, as long as there is a CO-OP project in the school admission notice, the visa officer will sign an internship when entering the country to change the study visa, and the validity period of the internship visa is the same as that of the study visa.

It is worth noting that the work experience gained through internship is not recognized by CEC experienced immigrants under the federal EE, but it meets the requirements of FSW category for work experience.

If an international student is studying in a public school and has a student visa, in this case, the spouse of an international student can apply for a spouse work visa, and the validity period of the work visa is the same as that of an international student; Then, if the other person is not a student visa but a work visa, and is engaged in positions 0, A and B, then as a spouse, you can also apply for a spouse work visa with the same validity as the other person's work visa.

Third, the bridge work signs

To be precise, this is the renewal of the work permit. When the immigration approval time in Canada is too long, many immigrant applicants need to apply for a bridge work visa before the immigration result expires. The bridge work visa can help these applicants who are waiting for PR to continue to work and live legally in Canada.

The basic conditions for applying for a bridge work visa are: the applicant must be in Canada, hold a valid work visa with a validity period of no more than 4 months, and have submitted an immigration application to the Immigration Bureau. The immigration project belongs to provincial nomination, federal fast-track and nursing project. After the approval of the bridge operation permit, it is generally valid for one year.

Fourth, LMIA work logo

LMIA work sign is the most common closed work sign. Simply put, LMIA is a document that is applied by an employer who wants to recruit foreign employees to the Canadian Ministry of Labour and Social Development. After the employer obtains a valid LMIA, eligible foreign employees can apply for a work visa with the LMIA and the labor contract or employment letter provided by the employer. The LMIA work permit requires the applicant to work for the designated employer within the validity period of the work permit, and may not change the work unit.

Seeing this, I believe you have a general understanding of the common types of work visas in Canada and the types of work visas that you can apply for or need to apply for, so that it will not have a major impact on Canada's work life and even immigration!

Further reading: How to choose courses for freshmen studying in Canada?

First, know the requirements in advance.

Before you choose a course, you can log on to the school website and find the page of elective courses in your major. There will be a detailed introduction. You can clearly guide the main contents of the course and the training objectives of the major, and you can have a general learning outline.

In this way, we can determine the courses according to our future plans, because different courses have different emphases, and there is a certain degree of convergence between courses, which will be more helpful for everyone's future study, so don't worry about missing some courses.

Second, pay attention to the order of course selection.

We must determine the course according to everyone's ability and progress. At the beginning of freshmen's enrollment, everyone is still unfamiliar with the teaching model in Canada. At this time, don't choose the difficult professional courses directly, but start from the basic courses and let yourself adapt slowly.

And everyone should arrange the contents of the professional courses they want to choose, because they will be related. If you don't arrange in advance, it may delay their follow-up study, so be sure to confirm the order to ensure their learning integrity.

Third, understand the evaluation model.

The final assessment is also what everyone should know. It is very important to be interested and helpful in learning, and the difficulty and method of assessment are also very important. If the card is very strict, then it is not easy for everyone to pass, and it takes a lot of time.

At present, the popular methods are paper examination and paper writing. Some courses will also be arranged in the form of classroom demonstrations and questions and answers, which will delay time and make it difficult to get high marks, so prepare in advance.

Fourth, pay attention to the time of course selection.

Moreover, the time node must be well grasped, and the preparation process must be done before the course selection begins, because after the course selection begins, the popular courses will be selected soon, and after everyone knows it, there is basically no better course.

Therefore, everyone's hardware preparation must be done well, and the computer website should also be checked to ensure that there will be no problems. Before starting, we should refresh the web page to ensure that they can enter the website smoothly and start choosing courses.

One, everyone can be admitted twice.

Canadian universities have relatively loose language requirements for students. If the academic ability meets the requirements, then everyone can submit their own applications directly. If the language is not up to standard, it is common to submit a double admission application.

However, it is necessary to confirm the number of places for colleges and majors. Compared with direct admission, the number of places for double admission will be much less, which also means that the requirements for academic qualifications will be higher. Not all students who apply for double admission will have the opportunity to enroll. Don't be too lucky.

You can graduate in two or three years.

Depending on the stage you choose, not all stages need to be studied for three years, and not all stages can be completed within three years, because the key assessment is the completion of your credits. If the results meet the graduation criteria, you can apply for graduation and accept a comprehensive assessment.

According to the length of study of most students, undergraduate study takes 3-4 years, master usually takes 2-3 years, and doctor takes 3 years. If the master's degree is to continue studying, it will take 3-5 years. The later you study, the higher the requirements for students' academic ability and research level.

Third, visa history will affect the application.

Generally, it will only have a positive impact, or it will not be affected. If you have gone abroad and successfully passed the visa examination, it will have a positive impact on your application for a student visa. If it is rejected, it doesn't matter.

Because the main content of the auditor's assessment is the materials provided by everyone, it will not affect the students' judgment because of the attitude of visa officers in other countries. What everyone should focus on is the deposit for studying abroad, which can prove that the family has enough strength to support studying abroad.

Learning a language is a waste of time.

Canada belongs to an English-speaking country. English is used in school classes and daily communication, and English has been used as a second foreign language in China for many years. Everyone will learn English from an early age and have a solid foundation. Therefore, many students think it is unnecessary to study extra.

What we should understand is that China's English study is written. Although we can get good grades in the exam, we still need to receive real application training, and we can improve our study at home.
