As you can see in previous posts, you will get 2 to 3 years work permit. Solely depends on visa officer.

I want to apply for a masters program in Memorial University in Canada. The program is course based and they have mentioned the duration as 1-2 years depending on the number of courses you take. How can I extend this to two years? I know PGWP of 3 years is given only for 2 year courses. How much years of PGWP will the above mentioned course get??

Read the permit validity section with the spdecific qualification for a masters where it implies a 16-23 month masters course may qualify for 3 years

Thank you for the reply

The university says that some students complete the course in 1 year of full time study and others may go up to 2 years. Most universities offer Masters in 1-2 years. I don't exactly understand what is this period of 1-2 years. And even if I pursue such a course , how can I finish it in 2 years and not in one year. We need a 2 year course for 3 years PGWP. It is a course based program. Please do reply. I am quite new to the study abroad scenario.

16 months course is actually the 2 year course .

2 year course is actually divided in 4 semesters in which 1 semester = 4 months .

Some courses have schedueled breaks for 4 months and some have 2 breaks , that's why its considered as 2 years course .

Aniways your course will be considered as a 2 year cousre and you will get 3 years PGWP even if you study 4 semesters without any drop for 16 months .

Hope that helps :)
My LOA mentioned 4 semesters which start at Jan 2021 and ends at April 2022.
So im I eligible for 3 years PGWP?
And Do i have any summer break?

My main doubt is that :-
1)University of Winnipeg-
Network security post diploma (1 year +4 months means 16 months duration stated in offer letter )

Now I can not find another 1 year Post Graduate computer science course after my completion of these in order to get 3 years PGWP.
What should I do now please suggest me sir I am very depressed.
