Work while awaiting PGWP

[DinaCanada]

Hi all,

I understand that I can work while waiting on my PGWP. Since my study permit is going to expire in July/out of status, will I still be able to work while waiting for them to approve my PGWP?

Thanks,
Dina

If you applied with a valid study permit and you were allowed to work as a student you can work until a decision is made on your PGWP regardless of SP status.

Thanks!

Just to confirm, the application is still considered "waiting on PGWP approval" if I have not done my biometrics yet, right?

Ass soon as a valid application is submitted.
