Not necessarily. You stopped studying for months. Your permit should have been cancelled at some point and wasn’t. You started at one school and withdrew, then went to BCIT withdrew, and then went back to first school first school over a year later. According to your timeline below, this has nothing to do with your father’s illness. You needed to complete a program at one school and you withdrew and started at BCIT. This was even before your father became ill. Did you inform IRCC when you changes schools. The part in bold was before your father became ill. So your completed program at ACsenda was never eligible for PGWP because you withdrew and started back over a year later.

9. Officer once 1 was called by Immigration officer in 2018 at 1148 Hornby St,
Vancouver, BC. I showed my official break letter to them, and they confirmed

My grandfather also called and sent emails to BCIT explaining my critical situation, but it was of no help. (Copy of proofs attached)
11.On March 7, 2019, I had to go back to India again as my father Manmohan Kumar was admitted in Patel Hospital as he was diagnosed
with squamous cell carcinoma oral cavity. My father had to undergo crucial surgery and he needed my support to help him during his tough times. His lower jaw and tongue were removed so my father could not eat or even breathe properly. I was ni India taking care of my father til March 29, 2019. 12.As I could not get courses in BCIT I decided to rejoin Acsenda School of Management, as my last option. At that time Ascenda School of Management courses were all full.
13.1 enrolled back in Aesenda and attended full-time terms 3 and 4 in 2019 and t e r m 1 ni 2 0 2 0 . I n 2 0 2 0 I t o o k a n o f f i c i a l b r e a k i n t e r m . 2 A g a i n , I w a s a f u l l - time student ni terms 3 and term 4of 2020.

I was again a full-time student in terms 1, 2, 3and 4in the year 2022. 14.Officer, I took official breaks as per policy of Acsenda School of Management only and any gap in my studies were only because of my helplessness. As a son I could not leave my father alone during these hard times. Otherwise, I am a future conscious sincere student and always have done my studies and worked hard.
15. In the meantime, my study permit along with my co-op work permit was extended up to March 31, 2023 (Study Permit No: S304361833). I maintained my GPA and received official academic record from Acsenda School of Management.
16. In December 2022, I completed my course at Acsenda School of Management. I was granted a completion letter and Degree in Bachelor of hospitality management from Acsenda School of Management in January 2023.

explain the details of my bad situation which I had to go through during
my studies in Canada. I got refusal letter on May 17, 2023, I was shocked to receive the refusal letter for my post-graduation work permit application, and I came ot know the reason for my PGWP refusal was lack of full-time student status in Canada during each academic session.
19.Officer, I remained in shock for almost 10 days after reading the refusal letter and even my parents are in great depression. My father unexpectedly got
cancer and being his son, it was very crucial for me to be by his side during his hard times and give him moral support and encouragement to recover.
20.Officer, I understand it si important for foreign students ot maintain a full-time status for their studies. But I had a health emergency for my father, and he badly needed me to be with him and I had to go to my home country for surgery to look after him.
21.1 am really very sorry for the missed time that I was not in Canada and the affect it had on my studies. My father has spent his entire life raising me
and providing me with all the necessities of life. He went out of his comfort zone to send me to Canada so I can get good education. We could have never imagined ni a hundred years my father being diagnosed with cancer. It was a
very tough time for my parents, and they needed their son to take care of them
and help them get through these tough times.
22.Officer, I requested my best friend Karan Pratap Singh Nanda to support me in these tough times. He is supporting me by providing free boarding and lodging June 01, 2023 onwards till the time I get my post-graduation work permit and I am allowed to work. (Copy of Affidavit for boarding and lodging by Karan Pratap Singh Nanda attached)
23.Officer, please help me. I am attaching fees receipts for $350.00 for restoration
of status as a student and paying online fees of $255.00 for Post graduation
work permit. I am thankful ot you for considering my genuine case and helping me out in this tough time.
24.Officer, please reconsider my genuine situation and spend some more time on my application as ti affects my entire life. I am a law - abiding, hardworking
and respectful person. My parents are in pain as they have high hopes for me.
25. Officer, please please please you are requested to use your discretionary powers and help me out by considering my genuine situation and restore my status as a student and grant me a post-graduation
