Working in Canada

You can only start working in Canada when you start your study program. You can not work before your studies begin.

You can work on/off-campus, without a work permit, if you:

  • Are a full-time student during the academic session before and after their regularly scheduled break.
  • Have a valid study permit and your study permit must state a condition that says you’re allowed to work on/off-campus. 
  • Have a Social Insurance Number (SIN).
