Hi,i came to Vancouver on a student visa.I have my study permit and student work permit(max 20 hours per week) that will expire in 2014.I am enrolled in a 2 year diploma program(i have 8 months in my program already).Now a small company wants to offer me sponsorship,and i will be able to apply for full time(non-student) work permit.The company is located in a small,kind of isolated city(country side type),which i'm very excited about,because i don't like the noise from the overcrowded cities.

My question is if the visa officer would want to give me a work permit while i'm on a student visa? If i get the work permit i will stop my studies and i will go to live in that city and work for about 1 year.

Also i want this sponsorship because the studies here are very expensive,and maybe i can explain that i want to make some money for 1 year,and after that i will transfer my 10 courses(that i already made at my current college) to a good university for a bachelor degree.Would it be a good explanation if i will say that i will make a temporary break from my studies,make money in a small city,and then apply again to continue my studies? I'm a young girl,and i love to go to new places,that's why i would be so happy if i will be able to get the work visa and to work there.

Can you give me an advice about what the visa officer may ask me,and what are the chances to get a work visa while on a study visa/permit?
