Hello All,
I have a question about post graduation work permit (PGWP) .
I'm planning to pursue a Masters program during next year .
What I could see was , most of these programs that I'm looking for are of duration from 16-20 months .
My question is - If I do such a Masters program, then can I expect a 3 year PGWP after my studies there ?
I also would like to take my family during the studies . In such a case , can I expect my child to get free education in Canada ?
How costly would be kid's ( 3rd standard) education in case if I have to pay by myself ?.
Please help me , thank you to all
If you get admitted to one of those masters programs yes you will get a 3 year PGWP. It is explained in detail in the PGWP information page.
You can apply for your family to accompany you during your education. It is not guaranteed that they will be approved. You will not be required to pay for your child's education if you remain a student. Your spouse (and family) can get a visa when you get your PGWP once you have a job in the NOC 0, A or B category and 3 pay periods.
Thank you canuck78 for the reply.
I will check the PGWP page for more details .
May I ask you the reason why you stated that there is no guarantee about the family visa approval ?.
As I understand ,Canada is one country which always has better policies for family re-unification when it comes to spousal visa .
Provided that you can show to the authorities that you have enough funds to support the family while you are a student .
Could you please let me know if there is anything that we should take to avoid spousal visa refusals ?.
Thanks
