Eligibility for other programs
There ate some things to know about holding 2 permits:
* * The work experience you gain while you hold a study permit doesn’t count toward the work experience
requirements for most permanent residence programs
© * Check the requirements for your program before you apply for permanent residence
+ * Ifyou plan to apply for a post-graduation work permit when you complete your studies, you'll need to meet
the eligibility criteria
© * For example, you must maintain full-time status during all semesters of your study program, even while
working.
This information can be found: Can | have a work permit and study permit at the same time?
We hope that this information is helpful to you
Thank you kindly,

Dear [requester],
Ihave a question regarding the interaction of a work and study permit.
if someone holds an open work permit that was issued in 2025 and is valid for 2 years, but they wish to study at a one
year program:
* Can they apply for a study permit and then hold both the work permit and study permit?
* Can they work more than 24 hours, pursuant to the work permit rather than the study permit?
+ Once they finish their studies, can they continue to work on their open work permit that is still valid?
Thank you for your assistance.
Yours truly,
