Can I change my program in the same DLI from a 1 year program to a 2 year program after receiving a Canadian study visa?

I would personally send a webform to IRCC with your new LOA just to update your file. No need for a new study permit. Yes you’ll need to show your new LOA when getting your SP. You’ll need to apply to extend your study permit if your new degree is 2 years not 1 year. I would suggest applying 6 months before your study permit expires and at least 6 months before graduation given current processing times. Wouldn’t worry you are taking an advanced degree at a good university. The concern was/is really when people apply for advanced degrees and then change do easier degrees and often at schools that are less reputable.

Correct, so yes I did raise a webform with the updated LOA, Visa letter issued by the university and a letter of explaination for my situation. For which ai received a confirmation that the provided files have been added to my file for an officer to review and other than that I received no other reply. Hope that is okay?
Also since my masters is fully funded by the university and the PG program had a fees and I need to withdraw from it and ask for refund, so can I go ahead with the withdrawal anf refund hope that wont affect my entry at the time at the Canadian border?

hola... ¿cómo fue tu llegada a Canadá?
the officer gives you the study permit with the new dates? Or the dates of your first LOA
