Hello all,

I just realized that I lost my legal status of remaining in Canada while waiting for my TR to PR application to come through. My work permit expires last October. While I have been waiting for it to be automatically extended, as the email I received last August from CIC indicated that I could work until May 2023 (I raised a post about it on this forum last October). However, CIC never mailed the automatic extension of the WP through the snail mail. Sadly I realized that I’ve passed the 90 day restoration date now that my PGWP expired last October.

In this case, it looks I do not have any option but to go back to my home country. Wonder if anyone is in the same boat? I also recently get unemployed, hence I can’t even continue working now that I do not have a valid work permit, even by that email from CIC that I could work until May 2023.

Any advice anyone? I wonder if I go back to my home country, would it affect my TR to PR application? I’m the international student category applied on May 6th 2021. The last and only ADR I received from CIC is May 2022 asking for the biometric fee, which I did as per their request. Thank you!!!!
First, I would take the time to try to get through to the call centre to see if there’s a way to get the work permit extension they promised you. If it looks like you can get it (or some other means of extending your valid status) and it’s good to May 2023, then apply for the ‘OWP under TR to PR Pathway’ before the May expiry to maintain your status if your PR has not yet come through. If the call centre is not helpful, contact an immigration consultant or lawyer (for example, the people at CanadaVisa). You can return to your home country without jeopardizing your TR2PR application.
