Hi,
I graduated at the end of May 2019, and my study permit is valid until Dec. 31, 2019. I was refused my PGWP in September because a transcript was requested and I uploaded, but did not submit, the transcript. So, it never actually reached immigration services and my permit was refused. Due to the new rules (Feb. 2019), I have 180 days from graduating to apply for a PGWP. So, on September 30, I re-applied. My questions are:
1. Am I still allowed to work in Canada under the conditions that I hold a valid study visa and have submitted an application for a pgwp, despite the fact that I was refused the first time?
2. I assumed I was allowed to work due to the stipulations, and I did get a job for about 2 weeks in October. Do I need to update my application to list this employment on my application?
3. My SIN expires December 31 with my study permit. I do not expect my PGWP to be reviewed until the end of January, so I will be on implied status. What happens if I have a job during this time? I can't have a job without a valid SIN, right?
This is all incredibly stressful and thanks in advance to everyone who offers their help.
