Hi Experts,

I did 2 semester from Centennial College, Canada out of 4 semester. Then due to Covid 19 issue, I could not continue last Summer Semester. Then I came back my home country (within 150 days) break from study for an emergency issue. I would like to start Winter or next Summer Semester in the same college. Is it possible to do that? What should I do for that? I should inform IRCC? Please, note that, my study permit & TRV is valid until next year 31st July.

Thanks.

Maybe. If you have not studied for more than 150 days then you have not complied with your study permit conditions, which could make you ineligible to extend your permit or apply for a PGWP in the future.

But, I left Canada within 150 days. Is there any other options? As I have valid study permit & trv. Do you have any other suggestions?

...and unofficial breaks must be authorised, right?

OP, the fact that your SP's expiry date is still in the future does not mean it's still valid. If you've violated your permit rules by being unofficial away from studies longer than the allowed period, your school would have notified IRCC and your permit may have been revoked/canceled.

Thanks for your reply. I got it. But, as I have valid reason for out of study, I can give explanation. Should I inform IRCC or contact with my college? Can you please give me any suggestions, that I can keep active my status. Moreover, as far I know, until April 2021 all classes will be held through online. Is there any little chance to keep alive my permit?

You'll need to first verify with your school that you are still a registered student there. What exactly do you want to inform IRCC about?

Actually, I wanna to inform my situation. Why I am out of study. Does it works? I can verify with my college 1/2 days. I believe, I have active registration.
