有朋友询问加拿大是否允许留学生打工？拜访国内的留学中介机构，大部分留学顾问都表示留学生可以在加拿大打工，浏览留学中介的网站也有这方面的信息，但是各方面的说法却并不一致，而且也不够具体，为了澄清各种似是而非的说法，本人特搜集了加拿大政府的官方资料，供各位参考。
留学生工作规定
根据加拿大政府的规定，在政府认可的高等院校注册的全日制留学生（Full-time international student），在校内工作（Working on campus）没有任何限制，即只要持有合法的学生签证，不需要申请工作许可证（Work Permit）；在校外工作（Working off campus）时，原则上可以从事每周不超过20小时的兼职工作（Part-time job），但需要预先申请工作许可证，具体规定如下：
必须是在公立或私立的专上院校（Post-secondary educational institution）注册的全日制学生，这里的专上院校是指中学以上的大学（University）或社区学院（College）。
入读公立院校的留学生基本不受限制，但入读私立院校的留学生，只有入读部分政府认可的课程才有资格申请工作许可，具体院校名单见后。
在外出打工之前，必须提前获得工作许可证（Work permit），申请办法可以向学校负责留学生事务的工作人员（International student adviser）查询。
在正常的学期之内，每周的工作时间不得超过20小时，暑假、寒假等长假期，可以不受时间限制工作。
即使是已经获得工作许可证的人，但如果丧失了全日制学生身份，或者学习成绩不能满足课程要求，也就失去了工作资格，必须将工作许可证交回当地的政府移民管理部门。
留学生配偶工作规定
符合上述规定的留学生，其配偶，不论是本身具有留学生身份的配偶，还是以陪读身份前来加拿大的留学生配偶，均有资格申请校外工作。
留学生配偶外出工作时，必须提前获得工作许可证，期限以留学生本人签证或工作许可证为准。
留学生配偶的每周工作时间可以不受限制。
留学生毕业后工作规定
对于完成学业的留学生，如果希望留在加拿大工作，可以申请“高校毕业生就业许可计划（Post-Graduation Work Permit Program）”，获得长度不超过原学习时间的工作许可证。例如，一位攻读四年制本科学位课程的大学毕业生，其许可证的有效期不长于三年。一位入读八个月短期证书课程的毕业生，其许可证的有效期则不长于八个月。有关规定具体如下：
必须是政府认可院校的毕业生（名单见后）。
申请人必须是全日制学生，其毕业的课程至少不短于八个月以上。如果全日制学生毕业之前的最后一个学期，由于距毕业之前仅有部分课程需要修完，而注册为非全职学生（Part-time student）的，仍有资格申请就业许可。
必须在收到学校发出学生已经完成学业的书面确认文件后，如校方正式的通知函或成绩单，90天内申请就业许可。
在提出申请时，必须持有有效的学生签证。
注意：加入“高校毕业生就业许可计划（Post-Graduation Work Permit Program）”是留学生转身份的关键，对于一个大学本科毕业生来说，四年学习完毕获得学士学位，申请“高校毕业生就业许可计划”可获得三年期的工作许可，该毕业生可以使用工作许可，继续在加拿大居留，按照现有移民规定，该毕业生只要在这三年期内，找到与所学专业相关的工作，工作年满一年，即可以申请为永久居民。这一点不像美国等其它国家，规定留学生毕业后必须找到一份正式的工作，而且这份工作还必须满足外国人就业的苛刻条件，才能提出就业申请。加拿大对留学生申请工作许可完全开放，并不要求你要先找到雇主和工作，直接给你三年期的工作许可，允许你在这个期限里慢慢去找！
