Studying in USA vs Canada for International Students: Which One is Better?

When choosing between studying in the USA or Canada, international students should consider key factors like cost, scholarships, and post-study work opportunities.

In terms of cost, Canadian universities tend to be more affordable, with annual tuition fees ranging from $13,000 to $30,000, compared to $20,000 to $40,000 in the USA. Both countries offer scholarships, though they tend to be more competitive in the US.

Eligibility Criteria for PGWP Extension in 2023: What You Need to Know

If you're an international student in Canada, you've likely heard of the Post-Graduate Work Permit (PGWP) – a sought-after document that allows you to gain valuable work experience after completing your studies. However, as of 2023, there have been updates to the eligibility criteria for PGWP extensions.

In this blog, we'll explore the key changes and provide you with the information you need to know about the post-graduate work permit extension 2023.

What is the PGWP?

The PGWP is a valuable document that allows international students who have completed a program of study at a designated learning institution in Canada to work in the country. This work experience is invaluable for those looking to gain a foothold in the Canadian job market and potentially apply for permanent residence.

Eligibility Criteria for PGWP Extension in 2023

To be eligible for a post-graduate work permit extension 2023, you must meet certain criteria. These criteria have been updated to accommodate the evolving landscape of international education and work opportunities in Canada:

Program Completion: You must have completed a full program of study at a designated learning institution in Canada. This means fulfilling all the academic requirements and obtaining your degree, diploma, or certificate.

Program Duration: Your program of study must have been at least 900 hours in duration, and it should have been completed in-person in Canada. This is to ensure that the PGWP is granted to those who have spent a significant amount of time studying in the country.

Valid Study Permit: You must have had a valid study permit when you completed your program. This is crucial as it indicates that you maintained your student status during your studies.

Full-Time Status: During each academic session that was part of your program, you must have been enrolled as a full-time student. Exceptions may apply if you had to reduce your course load due to specific reasons, such as a disability.

Graduation Date: Your application for a PGWP extension must be submitted within 180 days of completing your program and obtaining your final marks or a formal written notification of program completion from your designated learning institution.

Working in Canada: To be eligible for a PGWP extension, you must have gained work experience in Canada. The amount of work experience you've accumulated will determine the length of your extension.

If you have worked in Canada for at least 1 year, you may be eligible for a PGWP extension of up to 3 years.

If you have worked in Canada for less than 1 year, you may be eligible for an extension equivalent to the duration of your work experience.

Passport Validity: Ensure that your passport is valid for the entire duration of your intended stay in Canada.

The PGWP is an incredible opportunity for international students in Canada to gain practical work experience and potentially settle in the country. With the updated eligibility criteria for post-graduate work permit extension 2023, it's important to ensure you meet all the requirements before applying.
