Can I apply for TRV while waiting for TRV extension?

[uruguayoencanada]

Hi,

This is a quick question. I applied for an extension to my TRV while I was in Canada so I could use the implied status from my expired Study Permit to stay some more days in Canada.

I have left the country and I'm wanting to travel back to Canada to visit some friends, but there has been no update on my TRV extension.

Can I apply for a new TRV while outside Canada?

Thanks,
Marcos.

Leaving Canada cancels the extension.

You need to apply for a new TRV from outside of Canada in order to be able to return.

Thanks for your answer. Does it mean that those days that I was in Canada on "Implied Status" are no longer valid and I would have stayed in Canada illegally for some days?

No, you had implied status while in Canada.

No, you had implied status while in Canada.

I appreciate your help. On my IRCC portal, the application has no updates so far but it's still showing up. Should I use IRCC's web form or anything to let them know I'm no longer in Canada? Or request to have my application canceled before applying for a new TRV?
