Hi Ferns_Ivy, we are in the same boat. You can try to call them and ask the tracking number. I called them but they said my mail didn't have tracking number. I have nothing to do except waiting. I hope you don't run into problems like mine. Hope it can come soon.

I called CIC today and they basically told me the same thing. They said if it still did not show up in 6 weeks (19 Dec in my case), they would the resend the permit. I had my fight booked for next week and at this rate I don't think I'll make it. Keep me posted in case you get yours.

I was a fulltime student during the program except 2018 summer semester as I had to drop one course which turned me into part-time student. Explanation letter submitted together with my application.

I found that my application status was changed today. It shows that the application is being reviewed now (We are reviewing whether you meet the eligibility requirements.).

Accelerated programs
If you complete your study program in less time than the normal length of the program, you may be eligible for a PGWP valid for the full length of your program.

For example, if you complete a 1 year study program in 8 months, you may be able to get a PGWP valid for 1 year.

Its seems unclear what exactly qualifies as accelerated, there is a person on here who did something similar and only got 1 year, while his classmates got 3.

Also just because university is a DLI doesnt mean it qualifies for PGWP.
