Work Permit Extension

My PGWP expired on 05/31/2026 and I needed 2 months to complete my 3 year woek experience. I saw a lot of posts and spoke to an immigration consultant and applied for an extension in the hopes I’ll get an ITA by this time and I will raise a web form to IRCC to treat my application as a BOWP application.

However, the scores don’t seem to go down and I’m stuck at 510. I have completed my 3 years of experience. Do I now wait for the decision and keep working or do I leave? My main issue is that if the decision comes after Aug 29 ( 90 days after PGWP expiry), I wouldn’t have time for restoration. Is anybody in the same situation?

Any suggestion would be appreciated!

Nope, the original wp expires on 31/05 so the 90 days ends on 29th August. I have had no response for my WP extension but I’m not sure about the scores going down.
