✅ Why Consider Transitioning in Mississauga?

Mississauga is one of the fastest-growing cities in Canada, home to major employers, colleges, and designated learning institutions (DLIs). Many visitors quickly realize the opportunities here and wish to stay longer for work or study.

Under updated IRCC 2025 guidelines, eligible individuals can now apply for a work or study permit from within Canada — and you don’t have to leave Mississauga to get started.

🔄 2025 IRCC Visitor-to-Permit Transition Updates

🔹 In-Canada Work Permit Policy Extended

IRCC has extended its public policy allowing visitor visa holders to apply for employer-specific work permits from within Canada.

With a valid job offer (LMIA-backed or LMIA-exempt), you can:

• Apply for a work permit without leaving Mississauga

• Stay in Canada legally during the processing

• Begin working once approved

Cosmic Immigration Services Mississauga helps match you with compliant employers and builds your complete application.

🔹 Study Permit from Visitor Visa

If you’re in Mississauga on a visitor visa and want to enroll in a Designated Learning Institution (DLI), you may qualify to apply for a study permit from within Canada — especially if you:

• Are a minor child

• Are a spouse of a temporary resident

• Are accepted into a pre-approved program

We’ll help you identify local DLIs and craft a compelling Statement of Purpose (SOP) for your study permit application.
