PGWP and Restoration of Student Status

[quarantine2020]

Hi everyone,

I graduated in July 2020. My Study Permit expired in August 2020. Somehow I managed to miss the 90 days deadline to apply for a PGWP without complication... so here we are facing complications. Due to Covid, CIC now extend Restoration deadline until Dec 31, so I still have a chance.

Sorry for my dumbness But I can't seem to figure out how to create a 1st-time PGWP application that includes the option for me to submit my Restoration status receipt as a student. Could someone give me a step by step walkthrough on the technicality itself?

Step 1: Pay for restoration status here

Step 2: Open a PGWP application on my personal account.
How should I answer the screening questions so that the PGWP application would have the Option to show that I am requesting a Restoration status at the same time?

Thank you for your help.

No status right now. Before my study permit expired, I was a student.

I've been applying and interviewing for jobs, but I have not received any offer and therefore have not been working.

Do you know how to apply for restoration and pgwp?

You needed to change your status to visitor as you are in the country illegally. And have been in the country illegally since your study permit ended. You can’t restore your status of a student because you graduated.
