PGWP expiring , no CEC draw

[Dutch123456]

Yeah, now the Ukraine crisis to blame on.I pray they seriously help those suffering folks. No OINPs as well. Not sure how it'd proceed. I applied for extension (though it'd be refused/rejected) assuming I would get ITA soon as my CRS is 480+ under CEC. Praying each and every day for some positive outcomes!

I'm not sure what this is and if they will do this soon, but take a look at this https://www.cba.org/Our-Work/Submis...litating-transition-of-international-students

I created my cec profile on September one and the from that day hoping to get a call or extension nothing tilp March 7 that is today
It’s soo hard to count the days and hoping to leave the country because for the past couple of years I feel m not sleeping well or living well in this country and uncertainty is killing me each day

Anyone who applied for extension/BOWP because of NO CEC Draws has received a decision on this application? If so, please share it here so that many can plan their future and career as we go further!!

Did u apply for WP extension like BOWP/ changed to visitor visa?

I applied for pgwp extension. What did you end up doing?
Also we can finally get work permits issued for 18 months more soon.
But don't know how to convert existing extension application to the new one under policy when it comes out :/
Any idea anyone?

Hi, what did you end up doing? Did you apply for a wp extension?

Hey yes I did.

PGWP can't be extended unfortunately. I am waiting for a public policy for Work permit extension like last year. :/

Can we extend pgwp after the last year pgwp extension of 18 months?

Minister Fraser also announced today a new temporary policy that will give recent international graduates with expiring temporary status an opportunity to stay in Canada longer, so that they can continue to gain work experience and have a better chance at qualifying for permanent residency. Starting in summer 2022, former international students who are in Canada and have a post-graduation work permit expiring between January and December 2022 will qualify for an additional open work permit of up to 18 months. We are exploring a simplified, expeditious process for this, and details will be made available in the weeks ahead.


Starting in mid-June, former international students in Canada whose post-graduation work permits expired or are expiring between Jan 31, 2022 and Dec 31, 2022, will be able to get an additional open work permit of up to 18 months duration.

it says "up to 18 months", what might be the factor that determines how long of an extension the applicant will get?

Most likely the validity of your passport. But we'll have to wait for the full details to be released to see.

I also have the same question.
Anyone with an answer?

How did you applied for an extension without being eligible? What options you chose?
