International Experience Canada: Rounds of invitations
We regularly invite eligible candidates from the IEC pools to apply for a work permit. These are called rounds of invitations.
The number of candidates invited to apply during each round varies. Rounds will take place until there are no more spots available or the IEC season closes. Select your country or territory for key dates, available spots and how likely you are to receive an invitation in the next round.
2025 IEC season closed
The pools for the 2025 season are closed.
If you received an invitation to apply (ITA)
You can still complete and submit your work permit application.
If you didn’t receive an ITA for the 2025 season
Your profile will be removed from the pool. You can create a new profile when the pools reopen for the 2026 season. Your account and GCkey are still valid. You don’t need to create a new account or sign up for a new GCkey.
Schedule for the 2026 season
The numbers on this page are normally updated on Fridays.
