Hi everyone! I have two questions that I'd like to ask:

  1. Has anyone here applied for pgwp + sowp together without paystub and get rejected? I asked a consultant and the consultant insisted that the application should include a paystub too, while I did not see any requirements for paystub in IRCC website. I have lodged my pgwp and currently on implied status, ideally would like to apply for sowp extension before Nov 1. If it's possible I'd like to withdraw my PGWP and reapply for pgwp + sowp together by tomorrow (my work starts on Monday).
  2. Another advice that I receive is to start working now (since I am on implied status) and once I receive paystub, reapply with SOWP and withdraw my current PGWP. Anyone has ever done this? I am not sure the legal consequences of this one tbh. I don't want it to be considered as misrepresentation later
Thank you!

Hello,
I have applied separately for my PGWP and then my Husband's SOWP Extension in Canada. After getting job and paystubs, i updated them via webform but still got rejection. Reason is because my Work permit was still on Implied status at the time of my husband's application.
My friend applied for her and her husband together and they did not update any paystub or job letter, their application got rejected.
Even though it is not mentioned on the website, i would say it is still advisable to apply with your paystubs and full time employment letter. Also make sure whatever you upload via webform, just call them and make sure that they attach your webform with your application.
nowadays they are rejecting so many applications so don't take a chance !!
