An open work permit allows you to work for any employer in Canada, except for those companies that fail to comply with certain conditions or are involved in services like escort services, erotic massage, or exotic dancing. This type of permit is not job-specific, so applicants do not require a Labor Market Impact Assessment (LMIA) or an offer of employment from a Canadian employer.

Types of Open Work Permits

  1. Post-Graduation Work Permit (PGWP): For students who have completed their studies at eligible Canadian educational institutions and want to gain Canadian work experience.
  2. Spousal Open Work Permit: For the spouses or common-law partners of temporary foreign workers or foreign students in Canada, allowing them to work while their partner studies or works.
  3. International Experience Canada (IEC): Part of a youth mobility arrangement between Canada and several countries, offering young individuals the opportunity to work in Canada.
  4. Bridge Open Work Permit: For individuals who have applied for permanent residence in Canada and are waiting for a decision on their application.
  5. Humanitarian and Compassionate Grounds: For individuals who are in Canada for humanitarian reasons and need to support themselves.
  6. Refugee, Protected Persons, and Their Family Members: For those who have been granted refugee status or are awaiting the outcome of their refugee claim.
