Hi everyone,
I have graduated after 4 years of university and received my PGWP today, my passport expires on 2022/04/11 so I was given 8months instead of 3 years just as I expected. I was planning to extend my PGWP after renewing my passport but here is the problem:
Unlike many people in the same situation, my PGWP doesn't state anywhere "Further extension upon passport renewal" in the remarks section, all it says it this:
Remarks/Observations:TEMPORARY RESIDENT STATUS MAINTAINED AS PER R183(6). POST GRAD WORK PERMIT.
This is what they say the IRCC website:
You can only extend your PGWP if your passport expired earlier than your PGWP validity should have been.
This would be indicated in a remark on your initial PGWP.
Since my PGWP doesn't contain the remark, what should I do ? Should I just apply for the extension with an explanation letter ?
