PGWP - 20 hours limit problem

[andrew_larson]

Hi!
I will be applying for Post Graduation Work Permit next week as my study completion letter becomes available.
I meet every eligibility for PGWP except 20 hours limit. While going through the payslips for 2021 today, I found out that I worked 24 hours in one week during May 2021. The pay cycle was bi-weekly and I got paid for 37 hours (24 hours for the first week and 13 hours for the other). I can't recall any extra work during May 2021 but I think it might be some mandatory training I went through.
What should I do now? Will my application be rejected?

You can add an explanation letter in that case.

You can add an explanation letter in that case.

Can you please provide your thoughts on the structure of the letter? I can't find a good template regarding study permit violations.

There is no specific structure. Just be formal and to the point.
