Wrong Expiry Date on Study Permit

Hello everyone,
Precisely speaking wrong expiry date on study permit is caused two reasons.
1. That might be a mistake from the immigration department. This happens only once in a blue moon.
2.Fault in your documents. Mistakes in your documents or application might cause this problem. Probably this is the main reason that leads to wrong expiry date. Especially, the “letter of enrolment”. If the date on this letter of enrolment is incorrect the IRCC would provide the study permit that corresponds with the date on the study permit.
For instance: If you need a study permit extension that ends on March 31-2021; your letter of enrolment should show that you courses would end 90 days (by the end of December) prior to March 31-2021.
I personally gone through this and I knew how much mental trauma this could create. Please do not worry, you could apply again after obtaining documents with correct date. You do not need to approach a lawyer to resolve this issue. You must approach a lawyer, when your study permit extension got rejected.
In addition, you must also state that all your educational expenses are covered by your parents not yourself in the study permit extension form.
After you apply for the study permit extension that might take between 1-5 months to process; during this time you are on implied status. At this period of time you could continue your studies and work.
PS: You could apply for study permit/work permit numerous time until your passport expires
Hope this will help
