Any

Applied on December 28th, just they updated the background check column as in progress. Is that means that they started processing?

Hello Guys, I forgot to attach my visa stamp picture with passport copy. Should it sent via web form or they will retrieve my info from my passport number?

I know its not the right forum. But i received a biometric confirmation letter today. However i submitted biometrics last time when i applied for trv but didn't get this letter rather got a refusal. I am so worried. Is this a positive sign?

Yes, I applied on Dec 19th and I’m still waiting.

It is so confusing because a few who applied in Jan, received their pgwp. I guess they are lucky and the actual processing date must be around Dec14/15. Please do let us know, once you receive your pgwp. Thank you

My sister got her work permit. We applied through a lawyer. Dec 13,2018 applicant. It is valid for 3 years. She called CIC and talked to an agent who told her. Her lawyer still doesn’t know as I am assuming he hasn’t gotten the email. I don’t know why it gets updated on gckey and then the automatic email comes 2-3 days later. Happened with me a couple of times.

I guess you should call cic and ask them

here's a question:

I applied for my PGWP on January 24, 2019. My study permit expires on March 31, 2019 so does my SIN. I am working full time in my field of study from Feb. I was wondering that if my SIN expires (Very likely, looking at the processing time) , can I continue working until my application is in process? Jeez, This stuff is little scary.
I have looked at this already: (Should'nt be a problem, Looking at this)

Any clarification would be greatly appreciated.

Hey I also want to get the answer for this issue.

How many hours in total? I worked 24 hours each week for 2 years and i got my work permit.

Was that on SIN? and what was your GPA?
