What dates of study permit and PGWP to input for physical calculator for citizenship application. Thanks

[yongjian2309]

Hi everyone,

Hope all is well and thank you for reading my concern.

Following is my situation:
My 5-year eligibility is from July 16 2020 to July 17 2025.
My study permit is from Aug 11 2019 to Nov 30 21
My PGWP is from June 02 2021 to June 06 2024
Finished my study on Apr 30 2021 and submitted for PGWP application on May 03 2021. Got my PGWP is from like mentioned above.

Please kindly help clear my concerns regarding the physical calculator:
1/ What dates should I include as international student? should it be July 1 2020, or should it be the issued date from my study permit which is Aug 11 2019?
2/ During my implied status between study permit and PGWP, I would assume the status is still considered International Student until June 01 2021, or foreign worker on the date I submitted for PGWP which is on May 03 2021? Should I write any explanations for this?

Really appreciated your inputs and insights in advance.
Many thanks

See my answer here, https://www.canadavisa.com/canada-i...nship-application-urgent.874235/post-11103498

In short - if you were authorized to work while waiting for PGWP (see https://ircc.canada.ca/english/helpcentre/answer.asp?qnum=1181 ) then you put "temporary foreign worker" as the status.

If you didn't meet those requirements and did not work during maintained status during that time, then the usual rule is that the maintained status inherits from your expired document - so then you should put "international student".

But at this point IRCC is just trying to verify physical presence - so they care more about the fact that you had status and less about the type of status.
