I got my PGWP in August 2021 and after that, I applied for TRV, so that I am able to travel outside Canada. I have my Post Graduate Work Permit and is valid till 2024.

I received my passport and saw that the title in my visa is Visitor V-1 (which is valid till 2027) instead of Worker W-1.

What should I do now?
 
IRCC is doing this for both work visas and study visas since the Afghanistan crisis. 10-year V-1 instead of S-1 and W-1.

EDIT: It is 100% OK when you ENTER or STAY in Canada because your permit determines what's your status, not your visa. If you don't feel comfortable with V-1 you are holding now, the only thing you can do is judicial review now.

EDIT2: It only happens when you applied a study permit/work permit inside Canada.
