Hi, I was student in one year course
started - 28 October 2020
end- 8 October 2021
letter of completion- 22october
internship start - 19th july 2021 ( part of course)
internship end -18 November 2021
pgwp applied- 2 november

since my official program ended on 8th October, I continued working in internship thinking i can work. But now i realize that would be counted as unauthorized work. I fear my pgwp would be rejected.
What should I do??? I have not even provided letter of explanation. Can I submit through Webform??
I have full time job offer from 4 January 2021.

You got your completion letter on October 22nd, technically you are allowed to work untill you get your completion letter. But you applied November 2nd for your PGWP, if you didn't work too much in this timeline, don't worry about it. Just explain it was an honest mistake.

Also get in touch with the school to verify that the internship is part of the the curriculum. Ask them for a letter or something
