She uploaded all her documents withen the 90 day period but missed uploading one document. Ircc sent her a request for additional documents which she did upload but missed hitting the submit button (The error message said documents upload but not submitted to ircc) so the documents got uploaded but not submitted IRCC . The application got rejected due to insufficient documentation two days later.
Hello there, I had the same problem as your friend. I got the refuse letter 2 days ago. Can I please ask what status that your friend restore? Is it visitor or student permit? Thank you so much

if you are in similar situation then restore to Visitor and then PGWP
Just one quick question. Should I not wait for the CIC to get back to me. They have forwarded my request for reconsideration to the visa processing centre in Edmonton

Hi Everyone, (URGENT)

I got my PGWP refusal two days ago, my timeline is mentioned below:
  • Sept. 2017 - April 2018 - Completed 1st course (Georgian College), studied continuously for 8 months.

  • April 2018 - Sept. 2018 - Took a break as next course was starting in Sept.2018.

  • Sept. 2018 - December 2018 - Did 1st semester from Seneca in course Social Media,
After this, I switched my course to Project Management at Same college that is Seneca.

  • January 2019 - April 2019 - Did my 1st Semester in Project Management at Seneca.

  • April 2019 - December 2019 - Stayed in India due to mothers health condition.

  • January 2020 - April 2020 - Did 2nd and final semester for Project Management at Seneca.

  • June 1st 2020, applied for Post Graduate Work Permit.

  • June 9th 2020, got refusal for Work Permit Application.

The rejection letter says :
"Foreign students in Canada are eligible for a work permit for post-graduation employment only if they have continuously studied full time in Canada and have completed a program of study that is at least eight months in duration "

Why did I get a rejection, I was expecting at least 1-year work permit as I had completed my 1st course continuously for 8 months.

Please guide me through the process, what should I do?

It is already 150 days passed your first course, therefore it is not eligible for pgwp.

You should try for express entry

When u stayed in India was that part of the official break of the program? Or did you drop out for that period? Also there is a rule that 2 programs need to be completed within 2 years to get the joint PGWP. Also how well did you explain your studies in application because it looks complicated with the switching you did.
