PGWP Approved, sent to wrong address

[GalioAP]

Hello Everyone,
I am in a bit of a pickle.

In the application, I for some dumb unknown reason put the wrong unit number on my application.
I received an approval letter, and when I looked at the address in the letter, I realized it is a different unit.

It is in the same building, but not to my unit, a different unit.

Should I contact the residents at the unit whose mailbox my PGWP will be mailed to?

Or what should I do here?

Seems obvious drop a note to the unit occupant with your cell number explaining they may get mail addressed to you by mistake. Might already be too late but at least if the occupants are reasonable people they will call you anyway to confirm whether they ditched any letter or not and you will at least know. Could be worse and sent to some remote place or other side of the province or country even.

I reached out to the resident of that unit, they said they gave it to the security, the security said they can't find it anywhere.

I don't know what to do,

anybody went through similar positions?

What you can do:

- update your address using this link: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/change-address.asp
- then request a copy of your missing WP: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/applications/certcopy.asp
http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/applications/certcopy.asp
You may also try to call CIC directly, to speed up the process.

Hello,

I am in exactly the same situation as yours. The work permit is sent to a wrong address and now I do not have any valid document proof.

Could you please let me know what did you do to get a new one ? I called up CIC many times and they ask me to wait until the permit is returned back to them.

Thanks ,
Aanchal Singh

Hello, I have the exact problem, they just sent me the approval and I realized that the address is not correct. What did you do?

Hi,

How to.... first I checked my "wrong address". I put the wrong street and number but still in the same neighborhood. So I went to post office around neighborhood and asked very nicely.. with a right approach. Mentioned that my important document may come to the wrong address and I wonder if they had my document on their data bla bla bla... I believe, I showed them my ID card then they enter my name and the sender on their system and voila.. I got my document. I lived in Glenmore, Calgary. The staffs who work in Canada Post so awesome over there.
