  • apply for a work permit within 90 days of receiving written confirmation (for example, a transcript or an official letter) from your institution indicating that you have met the requirements for completing your academic program.
  • have completed and passed the program of study and received a notification that you are eligible to obtain your degree, diploma or certificate.
  • have a valid study permit when you apply for the work permit.
