To give you a rough estimate, I applied on last month's 9th. Its been 26 days today and still no PPR.

Good luck!

Hi. When did you call them?

So now that I have my PGWP approved, I want to apply for TRV. My wife's SOWP is still in process (submitted July 29). Should we wait for her WP to be approved as well or can we submit our TRVs right away?

Thanks for your answer, but I didn't get it. You said earlier that you called them a couple of days ago. So you called them again yesterday, and they started the eligibility review on the same day?

You can apply for yourself. That's what I did. I applied for trv as soon as I received approval letter. You do not need to wait for your physical copy of pgwp. Also, your spouse won't be receiving approval before December/January.

So you mean that if I apply for both TRVs right now, hers might get rejected because her SWOP is still in process?

Yes, exactly like that. First call was on Wednesday last week but nothing happened after that. In both calls they didn't say much just that I have to wait and that my application was ok. But I got the status update like an hour after calling yesterday.

What time did you call them? Because I’m not able to have anyone when I call them due to the high volume of calls

Pgwp physical copy or approval letter is required for trv. Also, you should not submit more than one application at a time. I would suggest you to apply for yourself only.

New processing time: 167 days.

Afternoon like between 1-2pm. Use option 3-4-0 that should work. They will redirect your call to work permit agents.
