HI ,

Its mandatory work to fulfill my degree. I have valid co-op permit which ends in December 2021. I am worried that since my letter of completion was issued on the 22nd october and I continued working as intern till November 2021. Will that be counted as unauthorized work ??

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.

I have valid co-op permit till December 2021. But got completion letter on 22nd October. This internship was mandtory in my course, its i did worked beyond my completion letter

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.

Request a letter from the school registrar or program director or co-op coordinator that verifies that the internship is part of the degree. Tell the school that you require it to apply for your work permit application because your completion letter was issued before your internship was over. The school made an error, which could be damaging, so you need their help to clarify that the internship is required. IRCC will trust an authority figure more, do take on the burden of hoping they will believe you if you can just have the school verify. Attach the letter to a webform, also submit your own explanation letter through webform asap and mention that you have requested for a letter from the school to verify your story.
