A study permit is your gateway to pursuing higher education in Canada. However, it comes with an expiration date, which may not align with the completion of your studies. Here are some reasons why you might need to extend your study permit:

1. Program Extension: If your current academic program takes longer to complete than initially expected.
2. Transition to a New Program: If you are switching to a new course of study or enrolling in a higher-level program.
3. Missed Deadline for Program Completion: If unforeseen circumstances caused delays in your academic progress.
4. Co-op or Internship Requirements: If your program includes a mandatory work component that extends your study timeline.
5. Maintaining Legal Status: To ensure you remain in Canada legally while completing your studies.

Whatever the reason, MAPLE TREE Education Consultancy is here to make the process smooth and efficient.
