If you have case specific questions about a file, you are encouraged to submit the IRCC Web form. Students in this situation remain covered by the grace period provision, provided they submitted their study permit extension application before the expiration of their current permit, even if the permit expires while the new application is being processed. This grace period ensures that students can continue their studies without interruption due to processing times.
