    Pgwp paper application due to passport expiry

    Since my passport was new I had no stamp no visa so I just scanned and printed the first 2 pages. You should scan and print any page with a marking. And my work permit wasn't attached to my passport I scanned that seperately and printed that. Just make sure your document copies are clear and...

    Pgwp paper application due to passport expiry

    No problem! Yes I did it around 2 months after I mailed my application. I didn't try earlier so I'm not sure after how long someone is able to link their paper application to their online gckey account.

    What to do when work permit expires but visa still valid?

    Yeah makes sense. But I still feel like even an automated response should be able to steer you into the right direction instead of answering my query with the definition of a TRV and PGWP. Anyways glad this forum and people like you exist :)

    How early can I apply to extend my PGWP + TRV? And is there a remark on the PGWP letting you know you're allowed an extension due to passport expiry?

    I applied for what should've been a 3 year PGWP in March 2022 but my passport was expiring in May 2024 so understandably my permit and temporary visa also expires at the same time. I've gotten a new passport now. In the past I've had to apply for study permit extensions but my applications have...

    Why does it say on the cic website that "If you want to keep studying, you must apply to extend your permit at least 30 days before it expires."?

    But the average processing times are more than 30 days so for the most part if you've applied to extend your study permit close to before the 30 day period so like with let's say 35 days remaining chances are you'll get the approval after your current one expires. I just wasn't able to register...

    Why does it say on the cic website that "If you want to keep studying, you must apply to extend your permit at least 30 days before it expires."?

    What are the 30 days for? Are we just not allowed to submit an application with less than 30 days remaining on our permit? Is that grounds for automatic refusal?

    Should I include a letter of explanation for applying for a study permit extension a second time?

    Thank you so much for your reply! Not that I expect you to fully understand my situation or know what everyone's applications result is but do you personally think that there are chances of an extension getting refused? My reason is that I wasn't able to finish on time because I took less than 5...

    Should I include a letter of explanation for applying for a study permit extension a second time?

    It's an optional document so should I include it or not? Is the letter of enrollment and proof of financial means documents enough?
