Can international students apply for PR in Canada?

Yes, international students can apply for permanent residency after completing their studies in Canada. They can obtain a Post-Graduation Work Permit (PGWP), which allows them to gain valuable Canadian work experience. With at least one year of skilled experience, they can apply under the Canadian Experience Class (CEC) or Provincial Nominee Programs (PNPs). Many provinces also have dedicated graduate streams designed to help international students settle permanently. Strong academic performance and work experience in Canada greatly enhance PR chances.
