A working holiday visa in Canada is generally 1-2 years, depending on the source country.

What happens when it ends? Can you:

  • just keep travelling in Canada as a tourist, so long as you stop working?
  • or do you get 30 days, like the J1 Working visa in the US used to do?
  • or do you have to leave first, and come back in, and if so, what are the rules surrounding that?

While you're enjoying your stay in Canada, whether it's with your working holiday visa, work permit, study permit, or visitor visa, you can get the ball rolling and apply for permanent residency inside of Canada or even from your home country through the Express Entry immigration system for skilled foreign workers.

Can we stay in Canada after work permit expires?

You can apply to restore your work permit in the first 90 days after it expires. If you do this, you can stay in Canada until you get further instructions, but you must stop working until you receive your restored work permit. There is no guarantee that your application will be approved.
