Post Graduate Work Permit Processing Time (PGWP)

[John_22]

I have a question to some of you that I forgot to ask the agent this morning. Would choosing not to include Letter of Explaination as an option cause a delay on processing applications?

Hey Guys,

do we need to provide previous employment details in PGWP Application Form..??

Yes

 

[John_22]

Yes I am from Sep 8th as well.

Anyone in here submitted their application on Sept 13?

So I’ve been waiting for my application to be processed since the 30th of July. They requested my transcripts again, which I sent, in November. Didn’t hear anything again for a while. Today I got an email stating my biometrics are still valid. I don’t know what that means lol, but hopefully it means that someone is looking at my application.

No, my classmate use the same agent with me, he got it long ago. We don't have the explanation letter.

Just got approved! Applied from BC on July 30th
I don’t know when they started reviewing my eligibility, got the phantom update this morning but I can finally get my life back in order! Also I didn’t receive any emails or anything, had to keep checking the portal.

I’m so so grateful for this forum for helping keep my anxieties at bay! My application was FAR from perfect as well with semesters I had to take off due to lack of funds and Covid! May everyone get their applications approved asap!

Would someone mind helping me out... appreciate any feedback!

Partner will apply for PGWP in January 2022, I can not apply for my SOWP until my partner has received her PGWP & it's included in my application.

Due to current processing times, I doubt we will receive the PGWP before my current work permit expires in March 2022.

Plan is to wait until the last day or so & apply for my SOWP with my partners letter of employment, 3 pay stubs, & contract. Then upload PGWP once received, to my application via webform.
Alternatively I may even upload my partners application form for the PGWP to my SOWP application.

Again, any help/opinion would be very much appreciated.

(We are both currently in Canada)

Thanks!
