Post Graduate Work Permit Processing Time (PGWP)
- Thread starter A_Smile

Hi All,
A question on PGWP & SOWP (Spousal open wp).
I know a relative who is on study permit here and her spouse got SOWP but the spouse is not yet in Canada (not landed yet).
Now the student got her completion letter and is in process of applying for PGWP so that she gets applied status and can continue working.
The question is, should she apply for her PGWP along with spouse's work permit now together even though spouse has not immigrated to Canada OR she should wait (approx 15 days) to apply for her PGWP and do so once the spouse enters Canada ?
I will really appreciate any input on this.
Thank you.

Some of them, not a lot. I applied in Feb and still waiting. I believe some people in Jan get approved in March. It is really like random sequence.
Hi everyone! Just registered here.
Applied ONLINE for initial PGWP in the end of November. NO UPDATES since then. Did anyone who applied in Fall (September/October/November) received docs already? If yes, in which month did you get them? Thanks a lot!

Nope, nothing yet
...I saw someone here, who applied in February, and got their docs on April 24th (Check the forum for that date, and you will find him). So I kinda wanted to see how badly we screwed due to the ongoing (?) strike...
Based on what I saw here so far, the Paper Applications take MUCH less time (Like 2-3 months instead of 6-9 months for Online).
I would agree but I haven't seen much paper applications getting approved thats why I am asking as per my previous post. Like I applied by paper for an extension due to passport expiry since January and I've heard nothing so I was wondering if there's anyone else who has applied on paper.
I saw a post here saying "Don't apply via paper", and a person said kinda same thing. Applied in December (?) still didn't receive it.. Check if there is a way to contact IRCC, so they could physically find your application, maybe it will help to bring it up the list?
I could try that yes.
The thing is for pgwp extensions they require paper applications that's why I did that. I know some persons have done theirs online but I opted for paper according to the website instructions.
