Are You Out of Status in Canada Without Knowing It?
Being out of status can affect your stay and PR chances. Here’s how it happens:

1️⃣ Never Started School – Study permit holders must enroll; otherwise, status may be invalid.
2️⃣ Overstayed as a Visa-Exempt National – No visa doesn’t mean unlimited stay.
3️⃣ Parents Forgot to Renew Your Status – Kids’ status doesn’t auto-renew with parents.
4️⃣ Took an Unauthorized Study Break – Over 150 days off without approval can cancel your status.
5️⃣ Passport Expired Before Renewal – Delays in renewal can cause status loss.
6️⃣ PR Applicants Assuming Implied Status – Work/study permits still need renewal.
7️⃣ Stay Limit Confusion – If an exit date is stamped, you must leave or extend before it.

If any of these apply, seek expert advice immediately!
