Can I work full-time during scheduled breaks in Canada?


Yes, as an international student in Canada, you can work full-time during scheduled breaks, such as summer or winter holidays, provided you meet certain conditions:

Key Points:


- Eligibility: You must be a full-time student at a Designated Learning Institution (DLI) and have a valid study permit.
- Scheduled Breaks: These include winter and summer holidays and spring break, as defined by your institution’s official academic calendar.
- Work Hours: During these scheduled breaks, you are allowed to work full-time (no restriction on the number of hours).
- During Regular Academic Sessions: You can work up to 20 hours per week off-campus during regular academic sessions.

Important Notes:


- You must resume full-time studies after the break. If you do not plan to continue as a full-time student, you are not eligible to work full-time during the break.
- If you are taking a scheduled break in your final semester and are studying part-time only because you need fewer courses to complete your program, you are still eligible to work full-time during that break.
