Hello,
I am a recent graduate (finished in December) under student visa that has now expired on 31st of march. Unfortunately I have missed the deadline to apply directly for a PostGraduate Work Permit by a couple of days, in part due to the delays in administrative help from this pandemic incorrectly suggesting me to focus on the Quebec application first.
I understand that I have to have a valid study permit to apply for PGWP, but I am having issues figuring out which application to do to only restore my student status and then apply for the work permit, not needing an extension of my study permit.
If I need to first apply for a restoration & extension of study permit first, then what proofs to I submit for uni enrolment etc as I am not planning to study?
Can I apply to a PGWP and restore my status at the same time? if so how? I wish immigration could understand the very minor delay and allow to apply for PGWP directly..
Thanks, for any insight on how to proceed would be very much appreciated!
