Hey guys any advise,
My brother stupidly didn't renew his study permit before expiry which expired dec 1st 2023 because that was his last semester. Unfortunately he has to retake just one course and now he has no status and needs to apply for restoration. Any advice on how to avoid a refusal and the processing time for restoration?
So he isn’t studying or working if his study permit expired on December 1. He had to renew prior to December 1. He had to stop studying and working at time. All he can do is apply for restoration along with study permit extension. Hopefully it comes before the next semester so he can take the one course.

Hopefully, fingers crossed he gets approved. Thank you

Hi! I applied for study permit extension together with requests for extension of my spouse's SOWP and my daughter's SP on December 5, 2022. Still nothing. eligibility review hasn't started. I learnt that another student in my class applied and got her extension in a month last summer, but she applied alone and she was Iranian maybe they accelerated her application due to the situation in her country. not sure. but normally ppl get an extension in 4 months as far as I see. lets inform each other here re the process of our applications.
Hi can you contact me I am in the same situation I applied 4th December with SOWP. email: rifaatfawziahislamrafa@gmailcom

Hi there,
I'm currently in a tight situation. My study permit will expire on July 30, 2024 and my studies will end in August 2024. So I already applied for an extension on Mar 8, 2024 but till date haven't got any response. I am currently working part time, the contract is till end of August. I know I can study even on maintained status but my concern is "Can I work on maintained status after July 30". Please if anyone has any idea about this, please let me know. Any insights, would help. Thank you!
