  • IRCC: It is legitimate for temporary residents to intend to apply for immigration

The Federal court of Canada has ordered the citizenship and immigration Canada to reconsider post graduate work permit application for foreign students who are taking online courses with Canadian educational institutions. These foreign students although graduate from Canadian educational institution are not eligible to apply for post graduate work permit.

The PGWP allows graduates who complete their education in Canada to gain valuable Canadian work experience for up to three years. This open work permit, which allows its bearer to work for a Canadian employer in any sector and in any location in Canada, is often seen as a bridge towards permanent resident status in Canada and, eventually, Canadian citizenship.
