Quick question, hopefully someone has an idea about what I'm talking about.

Here's the scenario: International student, studying in Canada falls in love with Canadian, gets engaged now wants to apply for PR but is worried that he will lose his study permit and student work permit once PR application is submitted.

Can anyone tell me how this works exactly, this person wants to submit the PR application asap but is worried he'll lose his other stuff. He lives in Canada currently as he is studying there so it would be a PR from within Canada.

Thanks everyone for your time and answers I know the forum community on here is amazing and so supportive.

I did this. You won’t lose your student status but you can only apply once you become common law or get married and obtain your marriage certificate.

Thank you for your response, were you also working?
His study permit expires in april, would he be able to renew it while his PR application is being processed? What if he applies for a work permit while his PR is being processed, do you know if it would be refused or accepted?

Why would he extend his study permit? Is he graduating and planning to go straight back to school? If not, he can apply for a post graduate work permit immediately after graduation as you only have so long after graduation to be eligible to apply.

I'm kinda on the same boat .

I need to extend my permit to finish my program , it's not an academic program .

So if we get married in March , and get the marriage certificate by May , do we need to wait for the certificate to be able to apply for PR Application ?
What about my study permit , as I will need to extend it in May , will I be able to apply for OWP while I still have my study permit ?

If you’re on a study permit you can’t sponsor him for PR because you’re not a PR nor a citizen yourself.
