[HELP] Study Permit Extension - Confused with new Temporary policy for work permit holders

[cpsingh]

Hi all,

I applied for study permit extension on 7th June for the program starting from Sep 2023.

I have now received an email from IRCC stating that I can study without study permit as per new temporary policy. However, I feel that this email incorrect. Please help.

Dear client,

<UCI NUMBER>

By receiving this email correspondence, you are eligible to study without a study permit as of June 27, 2023, by way of a new, temporary public policy.

Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) has implemented a public policy to temporarily allow eligible work permit holders, and those authorized to work without a permit under R186(u) of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Regulations, to study without a study permit.
