Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) has announced that the 2024 season of the International Experience Canada (IEC) Program is now open. The IEC Program allows nationals from over 35 eligible countries with youth mobility arrangements with Canada between the ages of 18 to 35 (depending on the country) to apply to travel and work in Canada. Canada will accept up to 90,000 applications under the program, the same as in 2023. There are three categories of participation under the program: Working Holiday participants receive an open work permit that allows them to work anywhere in Canada to support their travel and stay; International Co-op (internship) participants receive an employer-specific work permit that allows students to gain experience in their field of study; and Young Professional participants receive an employer-specific work permit to gain professional work experience within their field of study or career path. Depending on their eligible country of citizenship, foreign nationals may be able to apply to one or more of these categories. Interested applicants can contact their immigration professional for assistance.  

This alert is for informational purposes only. If you have any questions, please contact the global immigration professional with whom you work at Fragomen or send an email to [email protected].
