Hi, I came to canada two months before my study because my relatives live here.

I asked Service Canada can I work and they looked at my Study permit and said Yes. I got my SIN number and I started working part time in November. My study started in January

Now I am applying for PGWP I came to know that the work I did before my full time study started was unauthorized work. I only had one job since November. I am filling IM5710 form in that I have to mention employment I am scared if they see this unauthorized work they will refuse my PGWP? Please suggest what should I do?

attach only the documents that they ask for. Mention your issue in a letter and explain the misunderstanding.
