Passport expires after before PGWP

[Sheldon0516]

I am in a complicated situation. My program will end on December 2021, and i am planning to apply for PGWP by then. The problem is my passport will expire on March 2022 (I currently have an appointment on December 16 to renew it and it will take 6-8 weeks for the new passport to arrive). So let's say i apply for PGWP on December 2021 and will probably given a March 2022 expiry as well since the permit will expire with the passport. With the current processing period of PGWP at 97 days, i am not sure if i will even get my PGWP on time before my passport expires. What do you think i should do?

To summarize, here is the timeline:

Program ends - December 2021
PGWP application (97 days processing) - December 2021
Receive PGWP - approximately March 2022
Passport expiry - March 2022
Will get new passport - around February 2022

Apply with current passport and renew your passport at the same time. If you receive your passport before pgwp decision, update information. If you receive after, apply for extension to your new ppt. What other option you think you have? None
