Heron Law Success Story: Study Permit Restoration for Graduate School Student

Heron Law Firm August 22, 2024

Our lawyer, Laura Schemitsch, successfully assisted a client in overturning a study permit extension refusal and restoring their student status in Canada. The client initially applied for an extension to complete their final term but missed an IRCC deadline due to technical issues with the portal.
