Can you guys provide an insight why this is happening, I applied on the 6 of September but I haven’t gotten any updates yet. Is anyone in this situation?

When it comes to IRCC, there's no clear insight. There are some applicants who applied in the month of May and June and still waiting. Most likely your case officer might be on vacation or slow. Or if your application has dependants/spouse that could cause delay too.

Hello All,

I applied for my study permit extension on September 2022 which was about to expire on December 2022. So far, there’s no update on the SP extension application. Meanwhile I have completed my graduation on January 2023.

I am planning to apply for PGWP now. My questions are:

1) Can I apply my PGWP now while the SP extension application is still in progress?

2) If I apply PGWP while on maintained SP status, am I eligible to start working full-time before receiving the PGWP?
