Hi,

I was a student in Canada and have graduated in April 2014. Currently I am visiting home (India) for 2 months; and is going back to Canada on July 1, 2014. I have received 3 years post graduate work permit(valid till 2017).

The problem is, my TRV expires on August 31st 2014.

I am worried if that can be a problem while entering Canada? Will border officer allow me to enter Canada with only 2 months of validity remaining?

Your suggestions will be helpful!

Thanks!

You just have to explain you intend to renew the VISA. No problem, your PGWP has your back.

So, it is okay if I do not apply for TRV extension in India? I am worried because I have a job to join and I cannot afford an denied entry. :(

We all can get denied entry if one of our papers is missing or will expire soon. This is a risk you have to take for not renewing before you left. I don-t think there is a problem, I have never seen one. Hope you are not the first case.

As long as you enter Canada before Aug/31/14 you will be fine. Carry a copy of your PGWP with you.
