The 90 day limit applies to those who are restoring your status. It does not apply in this situation.MrD said:So that means i have 90 extra days to submit the application after my visa and student permit expire? (they both expire on the same date)
Submitting the inland PR and OWP app after your current status expires will not give you legal status in Canada, Implied or otherwise. Implied Status only comes from submitting a new app PRIOR to expiry of your current status.
Have a look at this excellent post by computergeek explaining the policies about an inland applicant with no status:
