Hi All,

I am an international student applying for PGWP after completion of Graduation. I had both Study permit and CO-OP work permit as COOP (Placement) was part of my studies.

Now in PGWP application at IRCC website there is a question

- Is your work an essential part of your studies (for example, a Co-Op or internship program)?

Given my PGWP application is for Open WP and not for studies , I should answer this NO. Am I correct or guide me what should I respond?

Thanks,
Ash
 
My university's PGWP guide states that the answer should be NO. I did co-op as well, and I selected NO while applying for my PGWP.
