Hi people from around the world;

As you may know PGWP is only one chance to get a PR, so if I study 1 year program I will only have 1 year PGWP if I submit for it just after the program ends.

PGWP is exclusively, so if you apply once you lose your second chance of a second PGWP period and that's something that bother me =/

Why that bother? That bother because probably I am going to apply for 1 year post-graduate program at Red River in Winnipeg, where in Manitoba after 6 months in a full time work I can start an application for PR, but I am in doubt about it.

But, this is the question to solve my problems, so is that easy to find a job and stayed at him at least for 6 months in Winnipeg? I will have just a few months on PGWP and at the end of that kind of permission I probably have to apply for another study program (can have some visa risks in this option) or come back to Brazil and this is not an option.

On the other hand we have in Alberta PR program that is much more easier, but I need to find colleges that have business courses starting in summer (May/2014) and are in nice cities (Red Deer has some business program that starts in May/2014).

Also, a 2 years program or 1 year + 1 year program gives me 3 years on PGWP, so how can I do this? If I apply at Red River the program starts in May/2014 and probably will end in May/2015 and I have to search another full-time program that start near that date (may/jun/jul) to apply for it - this could be a nice idea, but I just need to search another program to apply and extend my study permit* and guarantee 2 years of full-time study to apply for 3 years on PGWP.

* To extend study permit in that situation is an easy thing? Or CIC is getting harder to allowed that extension?

It is hard to think in all possibilities, but I have to, because after that it can be more easier to find a good path to PR in Canada =)

Thanks for your attention and answers.
