I'm applying for my PGWP soon, and I know my chances are very low. I was just wondering if anyone had been in the same situation.

background:
1. Refusal for study permit extension because I did not attach enrollment letter => restoration of status
2. Left school for 1 sem due to mental health, have notes from doctor advising me taking a term off because my school does not give authorized leave confirmation
3. Worked part time that sem (fall 2020)

i consulted with a lawyer and he told me that I will apply for restoration of status the 2nd time as I worked unauthorized when I apply for PGWP

i am scared, and I know this is no one's fault but my own, I just want to know if I could still have a chance, even low, to stay here, as this is my whole life now...

Are you working with an immigration lawyer to put together the PGWP application? I would recommend you do that.

I am, the moment I know I screwed up... I just want to see what my odds are and if someone who was in the same situation and overcame it could give me some insight...
