Hi.
I posted a similar question but apparently in a wrong topic.
One of my friend completed her post graduate program in last fall (2017) under study permit and had a child born in December. Since she was working on campus , (part time teaching assistantship and research assistantship), she had obtained EI hours and hence, she applied for maternity benefit and parental benefit on account of her EI , which she is receiving currently.
Since she has applied for PhD for next fall (2018), she had not applied for Post grad. work permit.
Just for information, after her completion of masters program, she had neither worked nor studied, so she had not violated any act according to IRPA.
But now, she is suddenly concerned if she is required to have her status restored as student or apply for work permit.
Her '90-day restoration period after status expires' is going to end soon, so she is desperate to know if she has to apply for restoration of status or not.
Please enlighten on this matter, according to your experience and knowledge.
