Hello,

My husband is studying as an international student. I'm on OWP for the same period as his permit. I have been working for 3 years. Recently I noticed 4 years maximum policy. Does it mean I have only 1 year left?

If my husband graduates and gets a 3-year post-graduation work permit until 2019, can I extend my OWP to the same period or I am not able to work any more?

If I use up 4 years on OWP, and then I study for a diploma in the future, can I work using my post-graduation work permit?

After you have worked for 4 years, as a temporary worker, another 4 years have to pass before you can work again as a temporary worker.
