My student visa is expiring on 31st May. My Work permit was rejected in December due to Transcript error & after New Rules , I have applied again in a new application on 14th February with all the necessary documents . So what you suggest ? Please Reply.
Will you be back in the country before May 31st? Coming in on an expired student visa is very risky, on what grounds would they let you in? You need to prove to immigration that you can legally come back - what do you have that you can prove this?

Your TRV must have expired too. For the love of god, don't leave the country till you're totally sorted here.

Dude that really sucks, I'm sorry.

I applied today and submitted both as I figured it couldn't hurt. You know that you can work full time while awaiting approval right? Would your employer not hire you unless you physically had the permit?
My SIN has expired and I just got a confirmed management trainee offer TODAY afternoon (second offer in 2 months) but they cant go ahead on an expired SIN. So I have to wait for the PGWP so that I can extend my SIN. Ridiculous. I am the only IDIOT in my cohort whose work permit was refused because of not having sent in my completion letter. I cannot express how irritated I am right now.

If I am not mistaken, your husband can apply for PR through Express Entry Canadian Experience Class. He will have to do IELTS (or any other English test) because there are points associated with it.
