1 year PGWP expires...

[TopGainer]

Hi Guys, this is my first time posting thread here, so if I make any mistake, please forgive me....

I applied for PGWP on 04/29/2019 and it got approved on 06/10/2019 (way faster than normal processing time). I started working on 05/13/2019 under implied status, and the PGWP will expire on 06/08/2020. I did my counting and I will have one year of working experience working in Canada by 05/08/2020, so I am wondering if I will be able to apply under Canadian Experience Class of express entry and Bridging Open Work Permit within such a tight time frame before my PGWP expires? (Dont want to lose my job)

Did a precalculation and after one year of working in Canada, I will have 482 crs, so I think I should be good if the crs would not grow insanely (finger crossed).

Situation:
No prior working experience before this job.
Working in Ontario.
Completed master degree in Ontario.

I appreciate every reply and thanks, guys, for answering my concern.

first of all, I don't think that's how implied status works . please somebody correct me if I am wrong , you might have been working without authorization before your WP was approved .

but I am no expert on this...

I went through the HR Policy of my company, and it seems like it is legal..Otherwise, they would not allow me to start working..

But thanks for the notice

I don't think it's about your company policy, and I am pretty sure it's not how implied status works now.

okay , the time you will have at hands sure will be very tight but I don't see it's impossible to do.

Yeah, thats what im thinking... I kinda have almost all the documents ready at this point and will keep updating'em...

Just wanted to see if anyone has been through a similar situation in the past so maybe I can learn something from past experience..

the key to a successfully BOWP is your on going PR application , if I were you , I will run through the " come to Canada " tool , get the document checklist and get everything ready to go as soon as you got your PR application number . the only thing worries me in your case is that you will have to apply for BOWP 30 days prior to your current status expires .

so fingers crossed and hope for the best.

Thank you!!

just in case you don't meet the 30 days requirement , make sure you write a touching letter of explanation as client information and let the VO know you didn't meet the requirement for a reason and you're using your best effort to make the best of the situation at hand. that's the best you can do should that happen .

Sure, I'll keep that in mind.. I'll also see if there is 1% chance to let my company sponsor me for LMIA...

okay, if a LMIA is involved then you won't be looking at a BOWP, it will be a totally different approach.

I suggest a bit of research before you post and scare someone. This information is very easy to find. http://www.cic.gc.ca/English/helpcentre/answer.asp?qnum=1181&top=15

It has nothing to do with being able to work while on holiday. OP is done studying, not on holiday.
