Travelling during maintained status

[nirajanbist]

Hi
I have completed my study in April 2025 and my study permit is valid until September, 2025. But as I already got one job so I have already applied for my work permit(pgwp). Now i have some urgent work at my home and need to travel in the month of july 2025.

Is there any way to travel out of Canada and come back at work even during the maintained status?

Thank you

Your study permit expires on whichever date comes first:

• the date marked on the permit or
• 90 days after the day you complete your studies

You will lose your maintained status if you leave Canada and you won't be able to work when you return until you get PGWP.

Not the case when applying for PGWP.

As long as you have a valid TRV or ETA and you have applied for PGWP, you will be able to leave Canada and when you return be able to work.
