Can PGWP be extended in my case? Please help...

[TrinhN92]

Hi there, i graduated with a bichelor degree in science in 2014 and got a 3 years PGWP. I worked part time for about a year before get acceptted to be a research assistant for 8 month then went back to school for my Master degree. At that time my PSWP still have over a year left before expiration date. But by the time i finished my Master and the final date will be Jan 2019, the PSWP has expired. Can i do anything to get another work permit so i can find a job? Since after the final date, i only have 90 days before I have to leave Canada and finding a job without a work permit in less than 3 months is next to impossible. Has anyone been through situation like me?
Please help!!!!!
Thank you so much.

Pgwp is a one off opportunity.

Employer sponsorship is the only option left for you. Others can comment better on this.

Did you obtain a new study permit for your Masters? As you are aware, a PGWP is specifically non-extendable and a once in a lifetime opportunity. If you don't use it, you lose it.

You can only apply for a PGWP once and your PGWP cannot be extended.

If you wish to remain in Canada and work after your Masters is finished, you'll need to apply for a closed work permit which requires a job offer and approved LMIA from your employer.
