AMENDMENT OF A STUDY PERMIT TO INCLUDE WORKING CONDITIONS

In order for international students be authorized to work under their study permit, their document must list one of the following conditions in the comments field: 

•  May work 24 hours per week off campus or full-time during regular breaks if meeting criteria outlined in paragraph 186(v) of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Regulations (IRPR). 
• May accept employment on or off campus if meeting eligibility criteria, per paragraph 186(f), (v) or (w) of the IRPR, and must cease working if no longer meeting these criteria. 

 If your study permit doesn’t have work conditions on it 

You can ask to have these conditions added if you’re eligible to work off campus. There’s no fee to add these conditions to your permit. 

You must request an amendment to your study permit before you can apply to Service Canada for a SIN.
