Getting a visa

We recommend that you come on a Work and Study Visa ( Through International Experience Canada) - a work permit to travel and work in Canada for up to one year:

Choose your Country:

My country is not on the list, I am older than the maximum age or I cannot get that visa...
For students that are not able to get a Working Holiday Visa, you need 2 visas.

• First, you will need to have a valid study visa:

• And then you can apply for “Work permits for students – Co-op and Internship programs”.
