They seem to be sleeping on the files. Did you apply with spouse or only PGWP for self? Maybe those applying with spouse visa are facing a longer processing time.
Only for myself.
btw, my student visa/co-op visa will expire on December 31 this year. I am not sure if this is the reason, maybe they will approve the applications from those whose student visa will expire soon.

Hi, I was wondering how long it takes to get the approval letter after getting approved. Also the physical work permit
1-2 days for the approval letter. 7-10 days for the physical work permit, depending on long weekends/holidays.

Hi, I just applied for TRV for PGWP with the approval letter. What is the processing time for this as I need to travel to my country soon.
