They should avoid to claim their PGWP to which they are entitled after graduating. Instead they should use the option of program stacking to increase their PGWP that they will eventually get after graduating from the second study program. Usually, a 1 year study program gets them a 1 year PGWP but a 2 year study program gets them a 3 year PGWP. Going for Masters program will not only extend their stay in Canada but also help them to get more points for permanent residency through dedicated PNPs such as Ontario\u2019s Master Graduate Stream or even in Express Entry System.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-pale-ocean-gradient-background has-background\"><a href=\"https:\/\/leverageedu.com\/learn\/study-abroad-uk-announces-strict-rules-to-address-student-visa-abuse-news-2024-05\/\"><strong>UK Announces Strict Rules to Address Student Visa Abuse<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-foreign-students-who-are-already-on-a-pgwp-that-is-expiring-soon\"><span id=\"foreign-students-who-are-already-on-a-pgwp-that-is-expiring-soon\">Foreign Students who are already on a PGWP that is expiring soon<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>International students who are already on a PGWP that is expiring soon and not having enough points to meet the prevailing permanent residency scores can also extend their stay as students based on a new study program.

Visitor visa is given for 10 years or until the expiration of their passport, whichever occurs first, and let them stay in Canada for up to 6 months at a time. Visitors can extend their stay beyond the 6 month time limit by applying for an extension via the visitor record.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For more <a
