Hi there,

I am an international student in my final year at Sheridan College. My study permit and TRV are valid until July 31, 2025. I will be finishing my program in mid-April 2025 and plan to travel back to my home country around that time to renew my passport and visit family. I plan to return to Canada in late May 2025 to attend my graduation and apply for my Post-Graduation Work Permit (PGWP).

I just wanted to confirm a few things:

1. Can I re-enter Canada in late May with my current, valid TRV and study permit, even though I will have completed my studies?
2. Will there be any issues at the border since I plan to apply for my PGWP only after I return?

Thank you so much for your help!
