Hello guys,

I am currently in the second semester of my second PG Certificate program. I am expected to finish my studies by August 2020 if not qualify for an optional co-op term. My concern is about the extension of my study permit, I have a study permit until September 2020. So, even if I will qualify for optional co-op or not, I will have to have a couple of months to apply for my PGWP application.

So, the question is that what would be the time frame I should enter in the study permit extension application form? Please give your opinion. Thank you.

Again Thank you.

Probably when you know if you will to do coop or not, remember you will also need a coop work permit which is a separate application.
You can apply for PGWP even with implied status now so I guess it doesn't really matter for that, you could apply anytime for extension before it expires. Coop right now doesn't look like a good idea, a lot of cancelled coops because of the covid situation so maybe only choose that if you have a sure place that will take you.

Thank you for your response.

I have another question regarding my studies. As I have already completed my 1 year PG course and another 1-year program is going on, How should I mention my two programs in the PGWP application form as it has only a single field in the education section. How can I mention 2 programs that will be done in Canada?

Thank you.

Thank you.
Include a letter and make sure you submit required documents for both programs, you could also print add more info to the form, scan and upload.
