On what basis do you qualify for an open work permit?
Are you here on a student visa? If so, then you don't qualify for an open work permit. At best you will qualify for an off campus work permit (if you are attending a qualifying school) once you have completed six months of studies in Canada.

Thank you. I have checked it, you can only apply for a work permit after 6 months of study. My classes starts on 1st May. I am doing masters degree for 2 years but i want to change it to 1 year PGD. Any asdvice on that. Thanks for your help. :-\scylla said:

It doe snot make sense to change from Masters to 1 year PGD program. After Masters (2 years), you will be eligible to get 3 years work permit, whereas postgraduate diploma will get you 8 month work permit.
What program you came in and which university?
