yes. Thank you. I was wondering if there were anyone who had this experience where their current permit expired in the middle of the H&C application process. I have booked an appointment with an immigration lawyer for next week to see my options,
I would appreciate it still if any of you know a lawyer who is specialize in this area (H&C grounds).
Thank you
From my experience, waiting for your decision on the h&c application is a fair reason to ask for extension of visitor status; how else could you possible maintain a valid status in Canada? Of course, contacting a lawyer or, at least, an immigration counsellor who will know the details of your case will be advisable.

But he can not guarantee staying in Canada before getting AIP.
Before that if he got out of status CBSA can deport him.

I wish you the best Messiboi. Hope everything will be ok with you. Keep us updated

Thats true. I will have a appointment with the lawyer and see my options. Sorry i didnt give my background info.
I came to Canada in 2011 with a study permit. I completed my studies (diploma) and got my PGWP. My PR got rejected because my work experience ( under CEC, that work experience needs to be at least 1 year and within 3 years) cross that 3 years marks by a few months. I applied for study permit again in 2016 for bachelors. Now i am done with university, so I am looking at my options.

Ok now explain a lot there is light in tunnel
I think you have good arguments for H&c you need to find a good experience lawyer to help you for pr under H&c
Good luck
Some new good policy will be out this year for H&c 2019 and 2020

If you have a BA then you should be looking at express entry not h& C. Unless of course, you aren’t eligible

You are not wrong! In my answers I always assume that if a person is asking about the h&c program, they know that this is their only option for whaever reason it could be. So I responded assuming this is the case. Of course, if any other immigrantion program is available for them, it should be considered, because h&c is a tough one and it should only be used as the last resort.
