Post Graduate Work Permit Processing Time (PGWP)

[AdmiralGG]

Hi everyone, my spouses PGWP was approved.

Applied January 29th
Eligibility update July 11th
Approved July 11th

2.5 year PGWP (passport expires)
2 year degree completed.

Once the PGWP is received, I will upload via Webform to my Spousal Open Work Permit application (applied March 23rd which included paystubs and letter of employment)

Hopefully they will accept as I needed to apply this way to keep my implied status as they were taking so long to approve PGWPs.

Good luck everyone

Congratulations! Did you get any email notifications beforehand?

Anyone applied on Jan 12th or before and still have no updates?

That’s frustrating. Have you tried using webform or calling ircc?

What to do

if you meant by "July 6th", I highly suggest you to contact your MP (member of parliament). Find the MP in your city and send them an email. They respond pretty fast (at least for me)

They should send you another copy if you haven’t received it yet and have informed them about it.

Jan 26th, eligibility hasn't started.
So stressed now seeing so many people who applied after me got approved...
Contacted an MP last Thursday who helped me contact IRCC. They said that I should receive some response from them (the MP) by July 19th

Ig the saddest part is not only being unemployed and out-of-status for almost half a year, but also knowing the fact that your future life depends on one single decision from them and they are just doing it so slow with increasing processing time...

I hope I can create 10000 robots to replace them
