Your TRV is NOT a study permit. The study permit will be issued when you get to Canada. If you show a 2 year program, you will get a 2 year permit.

You can't. You apply for a new one before expiry.

Well yeah once you are given a study visa it will be tough to get it changed but what you can do here is that you can change your course once you reach Canada and do a 1+1 from any college you want.

They can always refuse any app but not likely.

Your agent is probably trying to get more money out of you.

Seriously, AGAIN, the TRV validity has nothing to do with your study permit length. The study permit is issued by CBSA when you enter. This is not complicated.

It’s written in CIC website that if the total length of your studies is of 16th months and more you are eligible for a 3 year PGWP.

Hi

It’s written in CIC website that if the total length of your studies is of 16th months and more you are eligible for a 3 year PGWP.

1, No it isn't. Here is what is written on the CIC website

How long is a post-graduation work permit valid?

How long your PGWP is valid for depends on the length of your study program.

If your program was less than 8 months

You aren’t eligible for a PGWP.

If your program was more than 8 months but less than 2 years

We may give you a PGWP that’s valid for up to the same length as your study program.


For example, if you completed a 9-month program, we may give you a work permit for up to 9 months.

If your program was 2 years or more

We may give you a PGWP that’s valid for 3 years.
