Hello everyone! I have recently graduated in January 2023 with a Master's degree of 2 years duration. During my master's, I accumulated the equivalent of more than 1 year of full-time work (mix of full-time and part-time since they declared that students can work full-time on November 15...

But if I have a master’s degree, I don’t need work experience (according to what I read on the gov website)

I have completed my 2-year master's in Quebec. I have a PGWP, and looking to apply for a PR asap. I speak French and it's not a problem for me, I just need to do my TEFaQ (french exam) and I can apply for PEQ. I figured that the road to obtaining a PR would be easier if I do it through PEQ...

In December, I would have completed my 2-year master's degree and accumulated the equivalent of 1 year full-time experience (combination of full-time and part-time). I studied and lived in Montreal for the past 2 years and don't wanna apply to Quebec due to the additional French requirement...

That was really helpful thank you, also immigration to BC seems easier than Quebec? Or is it just me?

Why not? You sound like you've done it and are unsatisfied. I am not sure yet, I'm considering it because everyone says the weather is nicer there. I don't mind rain, but I can't say the same about snow though. I wanted to plan a couple visits there to see and make up my mind. Another point...

That's great to hear. Do you know if it's any easier to become a PR there as international student?

I am an international student in Quebec. I finish my Master's this December and I'll be applying for a PGWP. (I've been in Montreal for almost a year and a half) Is it possible for me to move to British Columbia and start with my PR process there? Do I still count as international student there...

Thank you for the detailed response! About the LMIA, I read on the government website that US citizens do not need LMIA because of the NAFTA agreement between US, Canada, and Mexico...

I am an international student here and want to extend my stay to work my way up to PR. My girlfriend is from the US and wants to move in with me however we’re not sure how she can achieve that. What are the odds for a US citizen to immigrate to Canada? Knowing that she’s in her 20s with a...

Amazing thank you!

IRCC states that one may only work up to 20 hours OFF-CAMPUS during coursework. As far as I'm concerned, there's no limit for the hours of work on-campus. Can I work on-campus and a part-time off-campus job?

I have a flight coming up at the end of this month. I did read up on the government's page that I have to take a test upon arrival and then quarantine in a government-issued hotel. If someone who has recently been outside Canada and came back, please share your experience.

I checked all centers on the government’s website. It only says to go there if I have symptoms or have been in contact. I want to do a PCR test for my departure from MTL. Where can I do that?

I've been in Montreal since the beginning of January and I've been thinking of visiting my family for a couple of weeks since tickets are cheap for April/May. My only concern is re-entry. I also work part-time with a company here I don't know if this would increase my chances of being able to...
