[jjj123545]

Hi All. I just received update for my PGWP application. It is approved.
Application date - December 3rd 2021

So any idea when will I get the work permit? It just says approved in the portal.

Congratulations

Hey,

Is your TRV on your passport still valid? also is it less than 180 days since you graduated? if so you may try. But since it is almost a 5 month gap after you applied for your PGWP, flagpoling could be a tad bit riskier.

My TRV is expired. its more than 180 days now. What is your suggestion..?

Any October applicants still waiting..?

Call IRCC and ask because it seems like they have moved on to December applications. But the official IRCC website states that they are still processing sept applications.

I called and spoke to IRCC but they are trained robots. Only one answer through out the call to all my question. We don't know and you need to wait.

TRV is not required if you want to flagpole or enter US.

Hey I applied my PGWP on Jan 21,2022 but IRCC shows my application is still under process. I looked at IRCC processing times and it shows they are processing files between Sep 17- 25. Anyone got their PGWP who applied in January?

 

[Vinoth95]

I applied on Jan 22 2022. Still no update in application. We can probably expect our decision in April end if they continue to process at current speeds. I see Dec applicants are getting approvals.
