Study permit extension

[yhome]

Hi All,

I am a graduate student for a fourth year. My study permit will expire by end of August 2017. My defense date is still not determined.
However, it is expected to be in sometime between June and September.
I am able to get a letter from my school that my expected graduation date would be before December 2017. Is it ok to apply for a study permit extension now, even if I will be graduated before December 2017? Will this affect by any mean on applying for PGWP after I graduate ?

Thanks

Yes you can definitely apply for extension and No it will not affect your PGWP in any way.
