Post Graduate Work Permit Processing Time (PGWP)

[eduardop]

Also, the delay may be related to many Study Permits to be processed due to the beginning of a new term (September).

Hello I applied on June 14th and I'm still waiting I guess I'm the last one. They didn't even start to review my eligibility and my spouse's eligibility as well. I tried to call there but couldn't talk to an agent. Anyone who applied on June 14th still waiting?

I am the same like you . Applied on June 16th and have not received anything.

I was the only applicant on my application. I don’t think it is allowed to add dependents on pgwp because its open work permit. After after obtaining one, u can apply for the work permit of dependents as long as u work in NOC A,O or B. And have 3 pay stubs.

Pls refer to cic.gc.ca for more infor

That shouldn't be the problem. You're just applying as a family. Application for all family members would be reviewed at the same time. It's important to have a full-time job in required NOC level, provide pay stubs, and a letter from the employer confirming responsibilities etc.

Spouse work permit depends on the main applicant pgwp and a job offer. It's a shame that it takes so long to process applications.

They are not even picking up the phone as they are receiving a high number of calls. I am surprised that applications are not reviewed in order....

I am the same like you . Applied on June 16th and have not received anything.

I've tried to call them all day today, without any luck being transferred to an agent.
I've applied on June 24th for my family and I, still waiting too.
So stressed
