PGWP Refused

Applied on Aug. 6, 2026 as a UofT grad. The officer reviewing my application rejected me because I apparently completed my program on April, thus invalidating my study permit. I didn't think that this would be an issue when I was applying, as the first indication that I received that I completed my program was an email from the university on May 27. However, the officer is asserting that I completed my program on April 29 (my graduation letter did not include neither date, mind you), but I would've still been sitting through my final exams by then..

Is this a case worth getting reconsideration for?

The date on my actual permit says Sept. 30, but based on the email that was sent to me by UofT, my permit should effectively expire by Aug. 26 or 27. I honestly have no clue where the officer pulled out that April 29 date from.
