Student visa working

[Alfred98]

Hi. I have a same question I asked last time because I got a different information from the Service Canada Officer. So I just got my post secondary visa, and I am attending high school in Canada in Grade 12. Last time I asked here, I was said that it’s not allowed me to start working from now. But I asked the officer at the Service Canada when I was there to get SIN, she said that I can work since I have SIN and a valid visa. So I’m confused. Is there someone have been through the same case as me?
Thank you.

Kindly check in your study permit. If you are eligible to work, your study permit will have the necessary details such as you can work for 20 hours. If so you can work . If not it's not possible I guess

Service Canada Officer is wrong. You cannot work if you are studying in Canada at a high school level.

You can't start working until you start university/college and are a full-time student. Normally no working allowed as an international high school student.
