Amazing video, Rachel! I actually studied 1+1 and got a 3 year PGWP. this strategy totally works 🏆

Thanks for this so helpful! I have a question, hope you can help. Is it fine if I will take 2 different programs? I am taking culinary now and planning to take flight services on my plus one. Another question, my current program will be completed on December, can I start my second program on May and work full time on the gap? TIA ❤️

[@ThisisYulia]

@@christianmendoza5959 I took event management and multimedia, so yours should also be okay (I think). as for the program dates, I’m not sure as you’ll need to have some kind of status in between: your old WP will expire in Jan-Feb but it will be too early for a new one 🤷🏼‍♀️

[@gretchenl5343]

Hi Rachel, thanks for giving us great and helpful videos all the time. Now im at a stage of deciding which school and program to take and it's been giving me a headache and sleepless nights even doing research and everything. I guess u r in Vancouver and would be the best one to give opinion on this. I've been eyeing University Canada West MBA Program, at first I was inspired and too happy to see that their admission requirements and even tuition fees are quite manageable in short i have the chance to make it happen...only to get the rose colored glasses shattered when i found not a few but too many bad reviews about the school and the program. I don't know who to believe anymore as they have a pretty good advertising on their website and i've been attending on zoom events of the school and it sounds promising. I hope u could give me insights on this sana soon coz catching up for January 2023 intake :) as u know u are one of the best vloggers here whom i trust regarding Canadian study :) TYIA!!

[@rrdancel]

Hi Gretchen, Thank you for commenting. As for choosing your second 1 year program, you may want to map out a plan so that it aligns with your timeline and also immigration requirements As for UCW, I suggest that you send an email to my partner [e-mail] and inquire more information about this school and your study plan. He has more insights on both these matters and can give you suggestions. Thank you! 😊♥️

Hi, Rachel, always tons of info in your videos, love it! quick question, i already made a 1 year program with Coop in ILAC but im planning to do 1 year program in a school with PGWP, do you know if it counts as 1+1?

[@rrdancel]

Your time at a non-PGWP school won’t count 😊 As per IRCC’s website: “If you transferred from a non-DLI to a DLI Only the time you spent studying at the DLI will be counted. You must spend at least 8 months at the DLI to be eligible for a PGWP.”

[@berilgame6355]

hi thanks for sharing! this videos is so helpfull but i've something in mind can 1 upgrade the 1+1 program to 2+2program? for examples im taking 2year of master of bussines admin in canada, and after i finished the program, i did not take the PGWP but im applying another 2year study but in different course ( some high demand job ) is it possible to do? thankyou in advance

Hi Miss Rachel. I just have a question po. Will applying for extension of study permit for the 2nd 1-year program be more difficult? Since you needed to say you will leave Canada after your studies when writing the SOP for the 1st program? Hope you can see this since I'm planning to do the 1+1 but I'm hesitant because it might be rejected 🙁

Nice information Thankk you. Pls help me out here I have a question - I applied for May 2022 but got my visa a bit late so i deferred to Sep 2022 (1 yr program,8month study non co-op), so my study is from Sep22-April23 + 4 month drop that i will be taking followed by other 1yr program from sep23. BUT the visa that i got stamped on my passport is from May22-March23 (my 8 month study ends in April23). So do i need to apply for study permit extension once and it will extended from March23 till the 2nd program ends ?

[@shonaT93spears]

Thanks for the informative video Rachel! Just curious whether there are DLI’s that offer programs or certificates that take less than 1 year to complete (this may be helpful to students who want to do a second program to extend their PGWP but may not want to spend another full year as a student). Perhaps 6 months to 8 months?

[@rrdancel]

Ohh the thing with programs less than 1 year is you won’t get to fully utilize the PGWP, if working in Canada is something you’re looking to do afterwards. And to be eligible for a study permit, your program must be no less than 8 months to qualify 🤗 just keep this in mind!

[@princesmith8008]

Hello Rachel! I have some question would like to ask. I have already applied for 1+1 bundled program and I am thinking to work full time after I complete my 1st program. However, These programs require 3 semesters to complete which means I won’t have a scheduled/summer break. Not sure if I postpone the starting date of my 2nd program so that I can have 4 months (1semester) to work full-time. Can I do that? Or will it be considered as immigration rule violation? By the way, thank you very much for all helpful contents you have been creating😁

[@rrdancel]

You can change inform IRCC about these changes and still retain your valid study permit, they just need to update it with the new program’s you’re planning to take. You can read further instructions on how to do so found here: www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/study-canada/change-schools.html Hope this helps ❤️💗

Hi! Do i need to pay a whole year's tuition for the 2yr program or 2 bundle program before i can start or is 1 semester deposit enough and the rest paid by instalments.

[@rrdancel]

There’s a minimum deposit you need to pay the school in order to get your Letter of Acceptance. If you qualify under Student Direct Stream (video on this found here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/a3y0k4t5a7ytfac) you need to pay at least the 1st year’s tuition. Preferably, have those funds prepared on the back end so you have ample funds to support your stay in Canada 😊

As per IRCC’s website, if your program length is more than 8 months but less than 2 years - they may issue you a PGWP with the same length as your chosen program.

Hi Rachel, if i will get 1+1 program...when shoudl i apply for the 2nd program?...

[@rrdancel]

I’d say midway through your first program, you should begin your research or check on intake dates for your 2nd program! Better to have wide allowance than do last minute scrambles 🤗❤️

[@jeanmarieferrer6575]

Hello maam. very informative video. Can i ask. What if i already had a study permit for accelerated program (1+1 program). Then I finished my 1st program and had a job offer for NOC B. I am planning not to continue my 2nd program. Is that okay? Can i already apply for pgwp? Did i violated any IRCC guidelines?Hopefully you can answer my question Maam..Thank you.

Hi, i have the same doubt. Did you get to know about it?

[@juliusjameslauresta5079]

I'd love to hear what do you think about co op programs.

[@rrdancel]

I’d go for it all day long! Co-op introduces you to the real world and opens you to opportunities to expand your network and gain practical knowledge in your chosen field! 😊❤️

Hi I have heard some people getting 3 years work permit on just 1 year PGDP. Is it possible or by luck ?

[@rrdancel]

Luck of the draw! They must have gotten a very generous visa officer that day 🤣 to be safe, I’d still choose at least a 2-year program

Currently, I'm in Conestoga College Course: Regulatory affairs 1 yr ( PG certificate) So, can I go for PSW course at NBCC for second yr, which is not PG certificate Is it affected my PGWP

Hi, I got admitted to Seneca Bundle program (1+1) where my courses include 1 year (2 semesters) + 8 months (2 semesters) both of which include optional co-op. I believe this is 18 months study period excluding co-op. In that point, can I secure 3 year PGWP?

Hi Rachel. I’m planning on applying for a bundle offer at Seneca but the programs are 8 months each. It will be 16 months of study. Will I still be eligible for the 3 year PGWP?

[@rrdancel]

What’s the bundle program? I know Seneca offers some to be eligible for the 3-year PGWP but im not entirely sure. It should be stated on their website - they would have a small line there that says the length of your PGWP! 😊

[@diandralawrence1621]

@@rrdancel The courses are Social Media and Brand Management. I couldn’t find anything about the PGWP on the course pages. Also Brand Management has an optional work term too. I’m wondering whether it will be more than 8 months with the work term and whether that will contribute to the PGWP length.

Middle of your first program is a safe start! Or as soon as the 2nd program is open for intake, apply right away!

[@charleyyap9123]

Will 16 months masters program be sufficient if I have long term plans in Canada like applying for PR? Thanks Rach. ❤️

[@rrdancel]

Hi dear! It really depends on the visa officer reviewing your file. I’ve heard some that got 16-month program issued a 16-month PGWP, and some getting a 3-year PGWP 😅 To be on the day side, I’d get a masters program where the LOA says 2-year master’s program.

[@smwk2017]

Make sure you check with your school. Some universities only allow 12 credits per semester for Master degree.

Hi Rachel. A question. How immigrate as a single student? when you are married, it's so easy, because your partner has a open work permit and the process economically is possible but, when you are single, you only have a part time work permit.. it is so complicated to support. What are your advices for this case?

[@christinaz.3885]

Look for a very affordable 2 year college program (so that you can get a PGWP for 3 years), get the funds for at least one full school year in addition to $10,000 CAD for living expenses, focus on your school work during the school term and work part time...work full-time or two full-time jobs during the summer break. Part-time work only helps with the bills, not tuition.

[@rrdancel]

You pretty much summed it up. Thanks for the assist, this is why I love KZbin. Great support system we have here! 😊🙏

[@mamatabhandari1860]

I got accepted for 1 year pgwp programme for Sep2022 intake, but after getting LoA, it was only specified as 8 months program (although it is stated in an official website that its a year long program) , so it will end in April 30 in 2023, and i am planning to reapply for another program from septmber 2023, so it will be around total of 16 months programme. Will I be eligible for 3 years PGWP?

[@chowdhuryniloyhossain1837]

Yes

[@rrdancel]

It really depends on the officer reviewing your file. If your total program of study is less than 2 years but more than 8 months - they may issue you the same length for your PGWP. If the visa officer is feeling generous, sometimes they may bump it to 3. But are you willing to risk it?

[@mamatabhandari1860]

Thank you so much for the replies. I will try to choose the next programme with sufficient length.
