After successful completion of an eligible post-secondary or graduate program at NBCC, international students may apply for a Post-Graduation Work Permit (PGWP) from Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC). The length of the permit depends on how long you studied in Canada, ranging from eight (8) months to three (3) years. You can see how the duration of the PGWP is calculated at this IRCC website. 

There are other criteria that you must meet to remain eligible for a post-graduation work permit (PGWP), including being a full-time student during every term of your program (with the exception of your final semester) and completing no more than 50% of your studies via distance learning (online).

Please visit the following IRCC website often as it is regularly updated with potential changes to policy and procedure.

If you think your eligibility for the PGWP might have been or will be affected by a change in academic delivery due to COVID-19, you should review the updates from IRCC regarding the temporary delivery changes to support international students affected by COVID-19 .
