my study permit will expire on June 21 and I just applied for an extension, is it possible they give me a shorter one because I've applied this early? please help

The extension will be based on how long you need it for, i.e. how much longer your studies will be, not how early you applied.

I know but they told me that I need to have a proof of enrollment for fall 2020 but I cannot get that unless I wait till mid March and I don't have the time for that! Please help

If you don't have proof of continuing studies, then the extension will be refused. You current permit expires in June, so you have plenty of time to apply in March.

Up to you. You may get lucky but I would say it will be refused.
I am thinking of waiting until mid-March and if I do not get a reply by then I will withdraw my application and re-apply.. Although processing times are 97 days, and that is without the trv, im not sure what people do honestly, do they just stay the whole summer when applying for an extension? this is absurd

You can leave Canada while it is in process.
