Extending Post Graduation Work Permit

[frotenacs]

Dear Friends,

I need some advice. I want to extend my post graduation work permit. I was eligible for 3 year work permit. But because my last passport expired on April 2012, the expiry of my work permit is on April 2012 too. I graduated in October 2009. So I think I can extend my post graduation work permit until October 2012. I have renewed my passport.

My question is:

Which application kit should I fill out? And, where should I send my application?

Please let me know if you have any idea.

Thanks

PS. I have moved back to India in November 2011. I work and live in India now. I will go back to Canada soon. My PR is "in process" (expecting September 2012).

As far as I know, extending a PGWP is not an option.

You are eligible for the OWP for the full 3 years but you likely require a visa as well. So you need to use the work permit application kit on the CHC Dehli site.

In the OP's case, he can because they didn't receive the full time allowed on their PGWP due to the expiry date of the passport.
