well they cannot work for a parttime job(odd jobs) if ur asking that..if on a coop work permit they have to work for getting credits means related to ur studies....also college has to authorize the work term in which they can work.

So does that mean that people who are being issued visa for Jan 14 session, will have to wait 6 months before they can work off campus?

I remember someone quoting on the forum that students for jan 14 can work off campus right away, so is it not correct?

Secondly, if one gets an on campus job, he can work from day 1 right?

Apart from TA/GA, do they have ANY on campus jobs?

I hate to say "I told you so" but....

I told you so!

The proposed changes are NOT confirmed until the CHANGES are ousted on CIC. So far, only the proposal is posted. I, mead and a few others said so already.

However, the CBIE link is interesting to read. They have some seriously good suggestions to amendments to the proposal and if having them implemented means there is a delay, then please do delay. The one about letting students work full time during the last semester is a seriously good one.

As much as it is painful to see how the bank statement is shrinking rapidly as nothing is coming in (unless you were lucky to find an on campus job), it will be worth waiting for the changes in the long run.

You can see the future? WOW!

as

Yet, sometimes they post changes on the same day they take effect.

And in there is proof that they sometimes release info on changes the same day they take effect.

Just because what we are all hoping for isn't posted, doesn't mean it isn't happening tomorrow. It doesn't mean it is either.

All we can do is sit tight and weight for when they do take effect.
