Hello,

I have a student visa which is valid until 2016 but currently I am on Post Graduation Work Permit (PGWP) and I want to go to India for one month.
So I am confused if I can re-enter Canada with my valid student visa and valid PGWP....

Can someone please help.

Thank you.

You need a valid TRV to re-enter.

As, long as you have been attending school, you shouldn't have any issues re-entering Canada then.

Hi,

So did you guys face any issue while re-entering Canada with a valid student TRV/visa and PGWP?

Your feedback is much appreciated.
