Extending Your Stay

Working in Canada After Graduation

If you choose to stay in Canada to work you must make sure that you have applied for your Post Graduation Work Permit BEFORE your study permit expires. Do not start working until it arrives.


Travel or Volunteering Abroad

Traveling or volunteering abroad after graduation has become increasingly popular with recent graduates, especially if you are taking time off before you start working or before you go to grad school. If you choose to spend some time travelling before you return to Canada, it is advisable that you ensure that all your immigration documents are up to date before you leave the country.
