PLEASE HELP!!! work off campus during last semester.

[RoxieK]

I am currently studying in SFU as an international student and I already have 136 credits.
So next semester is my last semester for my undergraduate degree.

As I remember,
I don't need to be a full time student (9 credits or more)
to work as a part time (No more than 20 hours per week) during the last semester.

I would love to have a link of cic or government website that clearly written about this exception. Can anybody helps????
The company have to have this information in order to hire me...

Anybody who has the same question please feel free to discuss along in here 8)

Is there an update on this? R186(v) still says one has to be full time at all times to work on/off campus. Any chance it could be modified soon?

It's 'not your choice' to be part time during the last semester. Only if few subjects left for passing the course and you have no other option but to be part time.

Hi,

I'm in the same situation. This is my last semester and I am a part time student now because I don't need any more courses to complete my degree. Can I still apply for off-campus work permit?
