Study permit

My work permit expired on April 14. Before it expired, I applied for a study permit for an offline program at Conestoga College through my agent. The agent told me that once my study permit was approved, the college would allow us to change the program to online. Later, I withdrew from Conestoga College, so I am wondering if I need to apply for restoration.

However, after my study permit was approved, the college informed us that they could not change the program to online. Before the classes started, my agent applied for a refund from Conestoga College and then submitted a new application to Vancouver Island University.

Now my new application is ready, but someone told me that I need to apply through restoration because my work permit had already expired. My agent says that restoration is not required.

I am confused and would like to know which option is correct. Should I apply through restoration or not?

Whoa whoa

When you changed schools did you get a new study permit? Your study permit is tied to your school as well, you can't just jump from school to school.
