Valid Student VISA with a Post Graduate Work Permit

[ak2]

Hi,

I have a Student Visa valid until August 25th, 2015. However, I graduated in February. So, according to the new rules my Study Permit is not valid anymore (after 90 days).

I am wondering if my Student Visa is still valid or it also expires after 90 days since my graduation?

Can I enter Canada with a student visa and a Post Graduate Work Permit?

As long as you have PGWP and you showed that u are looking for jobs to the immigration officer, you should be fine.
BTW, how long does it take you to apply for PGWP? can you provide some dates?

Yes, you can enter Canada. Your TRV is valid up to August 25th, 2015.
