Apply to work in Canada, extend your work permit in Canada or change the conditions of your work permit. There are two types of work permits:

Open work permits and

Employer-Specific work permits.

An open work permit allows you to work for any employer in Canada, except for an employer:

• who is listed as ineligible or
• who regularly offers striptease, erotic dance, escort services or erotic massages

You can only get an open work permit in specific situations, such as: if you:

• are an international student who graduated from a designated learning institution and are eligible for the Post-Graduation Work Permit Program
• are a student who’s no longer able to meet the costs of your studies (destitute student)
• have an employer-specific work permit and are being abused or at risk of being abused in relation to your job in Canada
• applied for permanent residence in Canada
• are a dependent family member of someone who applied for permanent residence
• are the spouse or common-law partner of a skilled worker or international student
• are the spouse or common-law partner of an applicant of the Atlantic Immigration Pilot Program
• are a refugee, refugee claimant, protected person or their family member
• are under an unenforceable removal order
• are a temporary resident permit holder
• are a young worker participating in special programs

An employer-specific work permit allows you to work according to the conditions on your work permit, which include:

• the name of the employer you can work for
• how long you can work
• the location where you can work (if applicable)
