Hello Everybody,

I'm currently doing my last co-op work-term. I'm a Seneca College student. My employer offered me an additional extension of the contract for another 2 - 4 months.

The co-op is only one year contact. Now my question is, on Jan i have to go back to school, i have only 3 subject left before i graduate therefore i will be at school only 10 hours (or less).

I have an off-campus work permit, that says that i can work only 20 hours when i have school. The thing is i don't have a full course load, just 10 hours, am i still restricted to work 20 hours per week, or i can work more?

Thanks.

It's illegal to work more than 20 hours using an off campus work permit.

If it is your last term and you only have 3 courses to complete your program, then yes, you can work up to 20 hours/week.
