A904) FFD erccepcress Semone conse pence enor ee Iwould like to seek clarification regarding the study restrictions for Post-Graduation Work Permit (PGWP) holders in Canada.

The open work permit includes a condition stating: "Unless authorized, prohibited from attending any educational institution or taking any academic, professional, or vocational training course.” Could you confirm whether this restriction applies in the following scenario?

* +The PGWP holder is working full-time.

« * They are enrolled in a Designated Leaming Institution (DLI) on a part-time basis.

* *The courses are 100% online and taken outside of work hours and on weekends. As there is no clear instruction on the IRCC website regarding this situation, | would highly appreciate any insight and clarification you can provide. Thank you for your time and assistance. Best regards,
