What is Status Restoration?
This process allows temporary residents (workers, students, and visitors) in Canada to regain their legal status after it has expired. This process is crucial for those who wish to stay in Canada and continue their work, studies or visit. International students on a study permit whose permit expires before applying for a post graduation work permit needs to restore their status with a new study permit even if their study is completed and apply for PGWP along with it.
