And If I wanted to start an online store and youtube channel, what would those 20 hrs a week have to include? Maybe you could do an example of this as a "week in the like of" video showing us the behind the scenes and how how you don't go over 20 hrs a week, using your own business and youtube channel as an example?

    • @studyliveexploreca

      So pricing will not be based on the market value - but it will be based on the value it can give to the client. Therefore, in the contract you will declare the labour hours - and then you will also declare this in your taxes, that’s how the government can track ur hours.

    Great info here. Thanks so much Ma'am. But I have a question, as an international student who knows how to make dresses, like African wears, how do I go about it in Canada, can I buy a sewing machine, make clothes and sell them online? Do I need to do some kind of registration? Kindly enlighten Me. Thank you❤️

      Study permit was put on hold because my university was not yet on approved covid dlu list, but they got on it on Monday and a lot of my course mate have started getting approval. We are allowed to start online even without our permit as far as we have applied for one
      And than God for ircc new regulations it is still counted towards our PGWP
