Since status and authorization are not the same under the IRPA, an applicant can only restore their status to that of a temporary resident and to the authorization that they held immediately prior to the restoration application. Temporary resident permit (TRP) holders are not eligible for restoration of status. Foreign nationals have 90 days from the date their status expired to submit their restoration application and pay the corresponding fee If an application for an extension of temporary resident status under section R181 is refused, the foreign national has 90 days from the date of the refusal notice to apply for restoration, if otherwise eligible. For further information, please refer to Restoration of temporary resident status - Canada.ca. Thank you kindly, [requester] From: Sent: [requester] To: Immigration Representatives / Représentants immigration (IRC) <[IRCC Immigration Representatives mailbox]> Subject: [requester] Hello officer, many times we have noticed that certain refusal letters mention the "restoration" remark on the refusal letters, and sometimes it doesnt even if the person is within 90 days, and it creates lof of confusions For instance, someone's Work Permit expires on 31 OCt, and his extension also expires on 30 NOV, the letter does not state that the person can restore, even though we know its well within 90 days. And sometimes it does mention. So how do we decide? Thanks and Regards 00773
