Post Graduate Work Permit Processing Time (PGWP)
- Thread starter A_Smile
- Start date
Can you provide the reason for rejection? I think you can reapply with proper justification. Also can you please provide the timeline of your friend?
The friend had failed one of the courses and also was part-time for one semester. But I was also part-time during one summer semester. So idk if thats a bad thing?

It states -
- maintained full-time status as a student in Canada during each semester of your study program
- This doesn’t include your final semester, which can be part-time, or if you took an approved leave from your studies.
- If you had to stop studying or change to part-time studies between March 2020 and the fall semester in 2020 because of reasons related to COVID-19, you may still be eligible for a PGWP.
This is what I found out, hope it helps!!
I hope this does not affect my application because I was part-time in my summer semester.
I hope everyone is doing well. If anyone can help me with getting the address and steps to send the passport for visa stamping.
Did he not send a letter of explanation why he was part-time? And when did he take the one course?
Yes, you can also do it after coming back to Canada by air, sea from St. Pierre - Miquelon. But that may mean you might need a visa for that country from where you're departing. The other option could be applying for the permit in a Canadian airport after returning from your home country.
Keep in mind in all the above instances (except when returning from St. Pierre & USA) you will require a valid TRV when returning from Canada.
I applied on December 22, 2021. My review of eligibility started today on a Sunday.
Congrats on that. You will get the good news soon. Can I ask u that when u applied did u receive a letter stating that you can work or any sort of letter?
Please keep us posted and good luck!!!
