Applied for PGWP with Restoration of Study Permit

[Joey_C]

You did it correct. All you can do is wait. Assume you have not been working. You are within processing times of about 4 months so you should get response in or around mid October.

If your study permit expires before you apply

If you don’t change your status to visitor and your study permit expires, you have up to 90 daysafter your study permit expires to apply for a PGWP and restore your status as a student.

To restore your status as a student, you must

• apply online for your PGWP and pay the correct fee ($255) and
• pay the fee to restore your status as a student ($350)
  • Because of system limitations, you must pay the fees to restore your status as a student online and attach a copy of the receipt to your PGWP online application. You don’t need to make a separate application to restore your status as a student.

You can’t work until your study permit and work permit have been approved.

Hey friend, many thanks for sharing your experience. May I ask where did you attach the copy of the receipt of restoration fee? Client info or somewhere else? Thank you.

Applied for PGWP and paid restoration fee after 2 months after study permit expired. Are we supposed to stay in Canada while our application processes, or we out of status???
