Hi,

I'm an international student and my current situation is that both my visa and study permit had already expired in July 31,2022 and since I'm a graduate student, I recently applied for PGWP on May 10, 2022. Currently, I still have no update but MYCIC send me a letter,

"Please attach this letter to your present Study permit Number as proof that F-----------
you are authorized to work for any employer, in any occupation with no restriction on hours until September 7, 2022
or until a decision is made on your application, whichever is first."

I can't renew my visa until I receive my PGWP and I wanted to asked if it is okay for me to overstay my visa until I get a confirmation of my work permit? And if by Septermber 7, 2022 that I still have not heard back from MYCIC regarding my PGWP, will I need to return to my home country (Vietnam) and wait till I get a confirmation to renew my TRV in my home country?

Hope someone can help me.

Thanks.
