Yes, it’s true that in many countries, a student residence permit for higher education is typically issued for the official duration of your academic program, with a maximum validity or renewal period (often up to three years). However, exceptions exist especially when your delay is justified, such as part time work that complies with local laws.
Here’s what you should do:
Request a Statement from Your University:
Obtain a letter confirming your enrollment, current academic status, and the revised expected graduation timeline.
Document Your Justification:
Show that your part time job followed the legal working hour limits for students and that it contributed to the delayed graduation for financial or health reasons.
Apply for an Extension with Full Disclosure:
In most cases, immigration authorities allow an extension beyond the 3-year limit if you provide credible justification and proof of academic progress.
