Re entry to Canada after final term

[marsh390]

I'm currently in my final term of studies which ends on mid of December 2024. My official transcripts are given on Jan 3 or Jan 10 tentatively. Is it okay to travel to home country and return to Canada? (I'm planning from Dec 15 to less jan 15, I've a very important work which I can't deny that's the only reason for my visit)
During research, immigration consultant from college and even ircc call center said that we can go to home country and return to Canada as long as we have valid TRV (which I have until April 2025) BUT it is up to the border security officer who decides whether we can stay in Canada or not itseems.

Others say that we can travel in between studies multiple times but once final term is over, and if you travel back to Canada they might not allow stating that you don't have valid reason to stay in Canada as studies have been over.

Ps: I don't want to apply pgwp outside Canada as I have to wait until I receive pgwp. Also college doesn't provide convocation letters or anything related to that in January. So idk whether I can use that as an excuse.

So what should I consider. Can I go and come back

Any leads would be appreciated. Pls provide any ideas or suggestions to decide.

If you have a valid TRV, then you are fine to travel and return. Assume your study permit is valid too.

So this won't be a problem ? From border security officers

is it okay to go on november end and return before my college ends? will that be acceptable

That would be a safer scenario.

is there any assurance that i can enter inside Canada or is it upto the CBSA officer at that moment. Is there a probability of rejection to enter canada in my case?

The risk and probability always exist. But not very likely with a valid TRV.

Hey, I am currently in the same scenario. My flight to bombay is on dec 25 and return is on Jan 25. I want to apply for pgwp after returning. Can we connect? Would like to know how your process goes through on jan 15.
