Thank you.
You can work full-time until a decision is made on your work permit application if you:
If these don’t apply to you, you must wait until the permit arrives to begin your new job. It is illegal to work in Canada without a permit.
- completed your study program
- applied for a work permit before your study permit expired and
- were eligible to work off-campus without a work permit while studying and did not work more hours than you were allowed to while working off-campus.
If your work permit is refused, you must stop working the day you are notified of the refusal.
