Hi there,

I obtained my Post Graduate Work Permit last August (2010) by

graduating university in Vancouver, BC.

The permit itself is valid for 3 year,

however mine is only valid until Dec 31, 2011 due to my passport expiration date.

On the permit, it states "Post Graduate Work Permit ends 30 Jun 2013. Passport Expires 31 Dec 2011 and Must Be Renewed For Any Further Extensions to Be Considered."

I recently renewed my Passport, so I know that I'm eligible to extend the permit.


However I'm not sure how and where to renew it (PGWP).


I couldn't find any information regarding this on CIC website,

so if anyone can offer me some information - that'd be so awesome !


Thank you and have a great day !

same way (fee and form and copy of current status and copy of valid ppt) and place as first app (mail to same place as before but wait to mail in Nov-Dec)
