PGWP issued for 1 year instead of 3 years

[JakirHossain]

Hello
I need immediate suggestions.
If I transfer from 2 year Post Baccalaureate Diploma in Business Management at Cape Breton University to any 1/2 year college Diploma/ 1 year college graduate certificate at college, will it affect on PGWP?
Should I maintain level of program while transfering DLI ? Can I transfer to 1 year College graduate certificate?
I need to make a decision, so I need genuine suggestions.
Thanks

So you completed program at CBU?

So you completed program at CBU?

No I haven't yet started. I would like to transfer after reaching in Canada?

So you have an approved study permit for CBU and no intention of studying there? If so you need a new study permit for your new program. This is not a PGWP issue so shouldn’t be posting here.

Hi All,

I made a mistake in PGWP. I did 2 courses and the application asked for the highest or most recent level of education. I submitted the latest course details and my work permit was issued for 1 year when I was entitled to 3 years. The application form was misleading and only 1 column was given to mention the academic course. What should I do to get the 3-year PGWP. I have applied for the same on the web form. Is this a common issue?

did they give you other 2 year pgwp work permit because my brother also have this kind of problem right now he get only 1 year pgwp work permit instead of 3 year

What is the issue as OP posted in 2020? What were his timelines of studying two programs? Did he include both transcripts/letters of completion? How long was each program? PGWP has changed rules too.


You may be able to get a PGWP that combines the length of each program.

Each of the programs you completed must be

• PGWP eligible and
• at least 8 months (or 900 hours for Quebec credentials) in length

You can’t get a PGWP if you already had one after completing an earlier program of study.

All you can do is wait as there are no timelines for reconsideration.
