Hello all,

My friend from India is caught up in a confusing situation. Her work permit and visa are going to expire after 20 days but she has not applied for extension till now. Website information says that one can stay on implied status if one has applied for extension at least one month before the work permit expiry. What is the safest way for her in this situation.

She is worried that she can't afford to go back India right now...and...if she doesn't leave Canada before or on the date of expiry of WP and visa she will bear consequences in future? Kindly suggest what should she do now? Please reply and help a person truly in need.

Many thanks

Nowhere does CIC state a person is REQUIRED to apply 30 days before status expiry in order to get Implied Status. They recommend 30 days but a person can apply up until the last day of status.
