Hi, because of changing into a new course, it will make the graduation close to the study permit expires in less than 60 days, and noticed of applying for the PGWP has to apply within 90 days, otherwise will be not acceptable. The meantime for the passport will be expired in 5 months time after graduation. Please advise what to do for not overstaying and can apply the Post graduation work permit.

How quickly can you renew your passport?

Remember PGWP will only be issues for the length of your passport validity so in your case it might expire a month after you get it if you dont renew your passport.

See if you embassy does express processing. Check how long it will take you to get your completion letter and final transcripts with your school.

So renew passport then if you are able to get completion docs in time just wait to apply else you might consider applying for a bridging study permit.
