Hello, my study permit expires on November 30th and my program has ended on November 15th. In order to get a Letter of Completion I at least have to wait 15 days but by the time I get it my Study permit will expire.

What should I do in this situation if I want to apply for a PGWP?

If anyone can help me with information thanks!

You should have applied for an extension before it expired.
Now you are out of status and need to do a restoration of status to visitor then once you get it apply for PGWP.

Do you mean "expired" on Nov 11?
Or December 11?

Sorry it was a mistake it should have been November 30th
Talk to your student services, immigration consultant at school.
They might give you a letter to extend if it's still gonna be Nov 30.

My advice, extend it, so you still have extra time if incase for some weird reason your PGWP gets rejected.
Again, talk to your school.

Extend your study permit explain that you want the extension so you can apply for pgwp, if you apply for pgwp with visitor status you cant work until you get actual pgwp, if you apply with valid sp you can work as soon as you apply.
