Practical order

  1. 1

    Record the temporary status held, its exact expiry, passport validity and every work, study or visitor condition that may have ended.

  2. 2

    Do not work or study after the applicable authorization ends unless the current official rules clearly preserve that authorization for the recorded filing facts.

  3. 3

    Use the current IRCC instructions to verify whether restoration is still available and which temporary document or condition request must accompany it.

  4. 4

    Prepare the factual explanation, passport and prior permit or visitor record, proof of current circumstances and every item on the current account-generated checklist.

  5. 5

    Complete the restoration and related temporary-status application in your own account, pay the current government fees directly and save the full confirmation.

  6. 6

    Remain within the activity limits described by IRCC, monitor the account, answer requests by their dates and follow the approval or refusal instructions exactly.
