Do you have information about the post-study work visa duration and opportunities in Canada for a Master's?

Yes, Canada offers a Post-Graduation Work Permit (PGWP) that lets international graduates gain Canadian work experience after completing eligible programs.

- PGWP duration depends on your program length:
- 8 months - 2 years: Permit matches your program length (e.g., 1-year program = 1-year PGWP).
- 2 years or more: Up to 3 years.
- Master’s programs under 2 years: As of 15 Feb 2024, you may still qualify for a 3-year PGWP if your program was at least 8 months.

This Canadian work experience can help you qualify for permanent residency through pathways like Express Entry’s Canadian Experience Class. The PGWP is a one-time, non-renewable permit. Rules and durations are subject to change.
