As Canada.ca says that study permit will expire in 90 days after receiving completion of program letter. My study permit valid date is until July next year. I received my completion letter last week. I will apply for PGWP in few days. So my question is: Although my study permit date is valid for 9 months, do I still have to follow 90 days rule after I apply for PGWP?Do I have to extend my study permit during the period of waiting PGWP(my study permit is still valid for 9 months, which is enough for waiting PGWP. But 90 days is not long enough. so Im so confused.)?
yes do it as soon as possible becuase without it employers wont take you, and you dnt knw how much time it will take to come

Hey guys, i have been asked for an Extract from the Criminal Record of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police.

Where online can i get this document, as i am applying from Outland
And, is there a difference between this and a certified one ? Do you guys think I don't need a certified one since they haven't asked specifically about it ?
Plz need answer urgent
oh you can get it from any station near your area- in Canada, you must go there to ask for it it

I have a question guys, I am moving to another province on Dec 1st, I applied on Sep 3rd, So I don't think I'll receive my PGWP by then. I was wondering if I do a webform for address changing, does it cause any delay on my application?

Thank you for response. What if I give an address in the same city that I am currently living in? Because I don't know how to receive my document after I leave, if I don't change my address. My landlore is not a reliable person.
