Hi guys. Congratulations to everyone who has gotten their approvals. I wanted to ask, to renew the SIN, do you have to go with the actual work permit or can we use the "In approval letter"

Yes. you need to wait for the actual work permit.
Is there anyone who knows how long it's gonna take to get an actual work permit?

Hey guys, got a pdf when I signed in today which says that my work permit has been approved. Can I use that to apply for my TRV or do I have to wait for the physical work permit to arrive by mail?

Congratulations to everyone that heard back today!

Hi !

I was approved for a year, which doesn’t make sense cause my passport does not expire in three years.

My program was for Two years!
Not sure what to do

Hi,
I am a graduate student in a university in Ontario. My program length is 16 months with 4 terms(no summer break). But the official letter that we receive from university says that course length is 16 months as far as I know. Do the visa officers even look at the number of terms?
I am really nervous about the pgwp duration I 'll be receiving in my case. Did anybody experience the same situation.
Thanks in advance

If the course is for 2 years , they should mention 2 years. Because they look for duration on completion letter and if it say 16 months, they might give you for 16 months. So correct the letter from school before applying pgwp.
