Need help.. My issue was started school in winter 2015 in BC as a full time student and then fall 2015 I decided to transfer to edmonton to another college to their one year program so did full time in fall.... winter 2016 came and then registered 5 courses but later went to withdrawal 2 due to personal circumstances of the death of my immediate cousin back home which was still full time..and later decided to do the remaining in fall, however the school didn't offer the those courses in fall.... till winter.... I applied with my transcripts from both bc and and the school from edmonton and was refused citing continuous full time studies...now I have been given 3 months to restore my status.... I went to school for letter and they attest that those courses couldn't be offered at that time and further stated lack of course of availability contributed to delay in completing the program.... After school I got a job with a bank but they say LMIA is for specialized roles So what should I do??

Your options are limited. Unfortunately the PGWP was correctly refused since you weren't a full time student.Need help..

To get a work permit, you need both a job offer and approved LMIA from your employer.
If you want to remain in Canada while you look for a job and employer, you could apply to restore your status to visitor.
Another option would be to return to school and study for at least another year to qualify to apply for a PGWP.
could u pls elaborate why I wasn't a full time student pls???? As I was enrolled in full time all the time only my last semester which I decided to do 3 based on personal reasons and that was still full time on my transcript. However there was a gap which was no fault of mine as school didn't offer it... the other mistake was when I applied I sent only transcripts with no explanation..... so now wanted to do detailed explanations plus school letter...if that is not the best, so it means I should go for a new admission and apply with that.....Your options are limited.

Just trying out my luck here,
I am not sure if I am supposed to apply a work permit once I get my final grade or once I get the senate letter (completion letter)..
so you didn't get the PGWP eventually? I am about to meet MP for my special case. Hopefully, they will reconsider the decision...Same happened with me, I went to MP for their source but still they refused to re-open my file

I'm in the same situation like yours, I did a 2-year full-time program but on my final semester i failed one course so i took it online because it was not offered the following semester, so now i applied for ,SP ex , restoration and PGWP, the schools give the letter of explanation why i took the oline course and i have attached transcripts,official letter
What other documents did u include besides passport ,visa and study permit.
