An applicant must hold a valid study permit to be eligible for the Co-Op Work Permit.
The permit is exclusively intended for work integral to the program of study. Any additional work, including internships or placements unrelated to the educational institution, which doesn't contribute to program credits, falls under the work authorization linked to the study permit.

- Hold a valid study permit.
- Be enrolled in a study program requiring a mandatory work placement for program credits.
- Possess a letter from the educational institution authorizing and confirming the mandatory work placement.
Additional documents may be necessary based on the applicant's situation, and once the required documents are gathered, the student can apply for a CO-OP Work Permit.

- Allows full-time work during the semester based on conditions set by the DLI.
- Mandatory for paid or unpaid work placements.
- It can be used simultaneously with the standard work authorization of a Canadian study permit, enabling students to work in unrelated jobs concurrently.
- A closed permit is valid for one job and employer, with the educational institution designated as the employer.

- No application fees for the CO-OP Work Permit.
