Hi

My course end date on offer letter is April 30, 2018. Unfortunately, my passport expires on May 28, 2018.

1. Could I get student visa to Canada?
2. If I do get visa, it would not be longer than passport expiry for sure. I have to renew my passport before it expires. So, what happens to my study visa on old passport. Do I have to re-apply for study visa on new passport? Which category would I have to apply under i.e. study permit extension or just study permit?
3. I am asking so that there should be no trouble obtaining PGWP which specifically requires valid study permit and takes about three months to process inside Canada. What happens if study permit issued expires before issuance of PGWP?

Thanks.
