PGWP after taking one term off for maternity leave

[jessica900]

Hi. My sister is currently doing masters and is full time. She got pregnant while studying and took one term off from (Sept-Dec2017). I know this changes her status from full time to part time as informed by the Visa counsellor at her university. What are the chances that she will get PGWP? Please any help and guidance is deeply appreciated.

Unfortunately it's impossible for any of us to say. Two requirements to qualify for a PGWP is that your studies must be continuous and also full time. You can only be part time in your very last semester. Ultimately it will be up to the IRCC officer who processes her application if it's approved or refused. Again, impossible for any of us to say.
