I applied for my PGWP 7 months ago but only received it the last week in February. It will expire next month (within 32 days), due to the expiration date on my passport. I applied for my new passport and only received it this week. Therefore, I am in urgency of someone's help. When I tried to apply online, I am confused by the question below regarding my eligibility:

Does one of the following apply to you?

- I am subject of a removal order that is unforceable
- I applied for a study or work permit before entering Canada which was approved, but not issued at a port of entry; or
-I am a primary or secondary student with visitor status in Canada; or
-I am a student who has completed a program of study that is a prerequisite to my enrolment at a designated learning institution with a visitor status in Canada; or
-I applied for permanent residence to an office in Canada and was determined to be eligible for permanent resident status (first stage approval)

When I put "Yes" I am given the option for a "Temporary Visa" and an "Open Work Permit" - (I currently have an open work permit).
When i put "No", I only receive the option for Temporary Visa".

Please let me know, what's the best choice.
