you will definitely need a visa to be stamped before you can enter Canada once you leave Canada...it can within Canada from Ottawa or from CHC New Delhi.

It takes around 28-30 days from Ottawa CPP

I would not advise CHC because you will have to go through the unnecessary approval process of showing your eligibility for visa and plus there are no posted timelines about the same.

If you send your passport today maybe yes but you should still consider the fact that the posted timelines are true for 80% applications..if you do apply, I would say do paper application because that would mean your passport is sent for stamping as soon as the case is approved..if you do online then they will send you an email and then you will mail it to them and then they will take their time and all the stuff..

it all depends on your response to the questions of Immigration officer and in the end it would be the immigration officer who would let you in....

just so you know and you might already know study visa and study permit are two different things

On Post graduation work permit can I work for two jobs? For each job separate workpermit is required or not?
Post Graduation Work Permit is an open work permit. It is not tied to an employer. You can work at more than one job.
