It was my first time applying for an extension by myself. I had no idea what I was doing, didn’t submit high school transcript and a study plan.

My sp back then was going to expire on September 30, 2022 and I applied on November 4, 2021. The refusal letter said: Shall actively pursue their course or program of study (applied too early)

My guess is that I applied way too early so it didn’t seem like I was taking high school seriously? Plus my application was a total mess. Reapplied in July 2022 and got approved after 20 days.

This is also my first time applying. My study permit expires this month.

Congratulations!!! Please what's your province?

I am in a similar situation in Manitoba. Please for your PGWP +OWP + study permit applications submitted in September, did you have to pay fees for restoration of status?

I applied for study permit extension, SOWP and 3 minor study permits extension since June 3rd and I am still waiting for approval till now. I got my letter of my completion from school since September 27th and am helplessly waiting for approval so I can apply for PGWP on a valid study permit. My study permit expired Aug 30th.

Manitoba,
Nop we were in implied status. so no need to pay the restoration fee. Most probably, your permits will be approved within a month.
