Question regarding On Campus Job!

Hey,
I recently got an on campus job. On the IRCC website, I have read that for a job to be considered “On Campus” - its should be on the same campus as the campus of my program of study (if the school has multiple campuses). That is, an on campus job is usually at the same campus where you study and not on any other campus of your school.

However, the job I have is fully remote. I don’t have to travel to any campus for my job but the department that I am employed by is at a different campus (most of the departments are at that campus - diff from the campus where I study).

So my question is, since my job is fully remote but the department I work for is at a different campus (also mentioned in the offer letter) - would my job be considered as an On Campus job or not?!

Note - I already have a Off Campus part time job!

“On-campus” means you can work at all the buildings on your school campus. If your school has more than one campus, you may only work at the campus where you’re studying in most cases.

You can work at other locations if
  • you’re working as a teaching or research assistant and
  • your work is strictly related to a research grant
In this case, you may work at a library, hospital or research facility associated with your school, even if they’re outside the campus. If you work at a hospital or other place where the protection of public health is important, you’ll need to have a medical exam, unless you’ve already had one.
