And will it be any issues If i come back to canada before my study permit comes. Right now i have eta and permit till 31 dec and I will come by 28 November.
Thanks

Yes you can. Assume you are not Indian citizen since you have eta.

You are applying from Canada so your country of residence is Canada. Since you have valid ETA (not a TRV) then return before expiry.

You can’t apply for an extension from outside Canada, only inside Canada. An extension is to stay in Canada. Are you studying now or in a program?

When did you graduate because your study permit expires 90 days after graduation? You can’t apply for an extension from outside Canada.

As long as you have a TRV, you can enter. A study permit doesn’t allow you to enter Canada. Show tuition fee paid for the second course or the funds in your bank.
