Thanks so much for the explanation. I think there is another point about Stream A worth mentioning. For recent graduates at universities in Hong Kong (graduated within 5 years), I think they can apply for a 1-yr post-grad program for Stream A.
Dr. Wong你好 想問下1617畢業既同學係咪真係可以讀兩年海外master去續命行stream B?因為見requirement有寫”You must have completed this prerequisite diploma or degree in the 5 years before you started your graduate or post-graduate program.” 求指教🙏🏿感謝
Masters is a degree. It can be right months, one year, two years, doesn't matter. It is a degree so it does not need to have a five-year prerequisite. It is stand alone. Just the masters degree itself is fine.
You can hold both OWP and SP at the same time m but if you study full time in Canada, you work hours do not count for immigration or PR at all. To be eligible for stream A, you need to have a study permit.
想請教, 申請OWP時, 填 imm1295e (Application for Work Permit Made Outside of Canada), 有一條問 "have you previously applied to enter or remain in Canada?", 如果只係去過加拿大用ETA入境旅行, 係答YES or NO? Thanks!!
Hi, I am studying a part time top up bachelor degree at hku space and it only takes 14 months to complete as it excemp me a lot credits in view that I had a bachelor degree in a similar subject long time ago. DO you think this top up degree can be used to apply for stream B? MANY Many Thanks!!
Hi Dr. Wong, first of all, thank you for all the hard work. I have an inquiry about applying for a Study Permit. According to one of the criteria the IRCC policy for applying for Stream A, says, as long as you have 50% of the program completed in Canada (either in person or Online) you’ll be eligible. My concern would be, could I study a two years’ diploma program with a Private Institution that has a DLI number; 1 year of study and 1-year Co-op, the first year will happen online from abroad (outside of Canada) and Co-op year will be within Canada, would that also be eligible to apply for Stream A after graduation?
Thank you. I read the report by CFSO issued in January on challenges faced by applicants for study permit under S216(1)(b). I really appreciate the lobbying work to help extend the OWP validity plus to expand the coverage of earlier graduates. I wonder if i can be candid in in Letter of Explanation during my application for the study permit my intention to apply for PR under the HK pathway ?
You are past the deadline to add the 1yr post grad dip. If you want a 1yr program, you can look for a master's degree. As for start date, calculate enough time for the graduation to happen, send time for you to subunit the application before 2026.08.31.
Hi, thanks so much for the information!! I am Mike and I am currently considering to 續命 by studying for an UK top-up degree fully online (e.g., university of Essex or University of Liverpool), will that meet the graduation requirement for stream B?
When you apply for OWP, count back 10 years to check the date shown on your diploma to qualify. When you apply for PR, count back 5 years to check the date shown on your diploma to qualify.
@@faiancheung3648 if you had applied on our before 20210831, you would have been eligible for OWP. At this point, you should just her a new graduation to qualify yourself for both OWP and PR.
Open work permit 的 'a graduate or post-graduate credential: from a program of at least 1 year; that required the completion of a post-secondary degree or diploma .....' 的 'at least 1 year' 可以是 1-year part-time 嗎 ?
You at least need to have transcripts showing that you have completed all course requirements, and ask the school to provide you with a letter of confirmation showing that degree will be conferred to you. Use all that documents to do your WES and apply for OWP.
Dr妳好🙈🥲 如果17年7月大學Bachelor畢業 而家報香港一年制full time master degree(2023年9月開學)續命行stream b 合唔合資格? 因為超過咗5年degree畢業要求? 定係master degree 同 graduate program/ post-graduate program 係 2 樣唔同嘅嘢 which means 冇5 年 prerequisite 限制?
Your current 2017 graduation also qualifies you for OWP. You can use your new graduation date to appy for PR when you have completd your 1560 work hours, based on 30 hours max per week to be calculated toward immigration. Your new graduation has to be before 202608031. You can work more hours to make more money, but only a max of 30 can be counted toward PR.
@@crazydotdog Both ways would normally work, but the deadline for Stream B is 2026.08.31. For your to start the masters now, wait for graduation and apply for OWP, then look for a job, and accumulate 1560 Canadian work hours based on max 30 hours a week to be counted for immigration, your timeline maybe too tight.

I cannot answer this question, but I do not recommend applicants to take chances. There are paths and instructions to follows, and it is possible to make oneself eligible based on these instructions.
For over 50% of the time of your original duration of the entire program, you need to be in Canada. Having transfer credits do not matter even if it shortens your program. It is the ultimate diploma that counts. But you also need to have a study permit to qualify for PR. If your perusal is not eligible for study permit, you are likely not eligible. So make sure you choose a program that is eligible for study permit. If it is completely online and won't qualify for study permit, choose a program that at least give you a placement semester, which will give you a permit.
No la. I have many engineer friends and family. The metal ring is a symbol only. Most of them don't wear it everyday. They just go into a drawer like your graduation diploma.
@@alisonh.9392 If you are talking about the ILCAC in Toronto, yes they are DLI, but they do not offer you PGWD so you need a legal status to stay in Canada while you wait. Also, COOP or not is not an issue. I suppose you are talking about the 2-year post-secondary diplomas? If someone is only taking language programs at a college, those are usually not eligible. Professional programs with coop year like 1+1 are treated the same as 2year programs.
