Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) has announced a new policy that allows certain work permit holders to pursue education without obtaining a study permit. This provision applies specifically to individuals who applied for their work permits before June 7, 2023, and will remain in effect until June 27, 2026. Under this policy, eligible permit holders can enroll in educational programs if their work permit remains valid. This measure represents Canada’s ongoing commitment to providing flexible pathways for immigrants to enhance their skills and education while contributing to the workforce.
