IRCC may change the field of study requirements or related CIP Codes at any time and students must carefully assess their program and any updated guidance or criteria from IRCC to assess their PGWP eligibility. พรพรสำฦต cannot guarantee the outcome of any PGWP application. IRCC makes all final decisions on whether to issue PGWPs and the พรพรสำฦต does not have decision-making authority in relation to a PGWP criteria (including eligible fields of study and program evaluation) or application assessment.
