This describes the week above, not today. Rules move, and this page is not updated after it is published. Check the official source below before you act on it, that is what the link is for.
A temporary policy started on 4 September 2026. It lets people who hold a valid work permit study for 6 months or less, or until their work permit ends, whichever comes first. The earlier version of this policy only covered workers whose permit application had reached the department on or before 7 June 2023.
Takes effect 2026-09-04.
