PGWP + SOWP

Applied 13 Jan
Updated 4 June
Approved 5 June

Inland, NS (no email being sent by IRCC)

PGWP pay slip was attached as a part-time teacher!

Had to be 3 years but because of my passport expiry date, I got 5 months less!
I know someone said it doesn’t where in Canada you apply from but i glad to see an approval from NS. Applied on the 20th, patiently waiting. No update yet. Congratulations!!!

Any more approvals? I applied on 14th January and nothing yet. My 144 days will be completed tomorrow and the MP of my area will call IRCC to get an update. Cause last time when they called the IRCC had said that we haven’t opened the file yet.

Two web forms and they didn’t reply any of them. Both got auto replies saying processing office will contact in case more information is needed. The call centre said same thing and I have requested GCMS notes.
How do you request GCMS notes? Is there a link for that? Thank you!

Fingers crossed! I think that MP actions should speed up the process.

Can you please share how did you approach your local mp? Did you have to go in person or send an email describing the situation? I am currently on my 127 days and I am planning to contact them eventually if there's no update soon.

Hello,

If it’s 127 days then do not contact now. As soon as 144 days are completed then you should contact them. I just called and then sent an email too with my details like DOB, UCI and application.

Did you apply both PGWP and SOWP together?
