Hello,

Currently, I'm studying in post graduate program at Langara College and I just got accepted in the master degree at SFU. So, I want to change my program.

The master program will start in September. My plan is to finish this term at Langara first which will be ended in the end of April.

My question is can i keep working on my part time job during the gap ?
I counted the dates and it is not exceeding 150 days as stated in the cic website.
if i can, how many hours can i work within one week? my current study permit allow me to work up to 20 hours/week and I can work full time during my school breaks.

if I cannot work, can i still stay in the country?

Thank you so much for reading and response !
