Hi,

I have a Student Visa valid until August 25th, 2015. However, I graduated in February. So, according to the new rules my Study Permit is not valid anymore (after 90 days).

I am wondering if my Student Visa is still valid or it also expires after 90 days since my graduation?

Can I enter Canada with a student visa and a Post Graduate Work Permit?

As long as you have PGWP and you showed that u are looking for jobs to the immigration officer, you should be fine.
BTW, how long does it take you to apply for PGWP? can you provide some dates?
