Hey guys
I have an urgent query. I have pgwp post graduate work permit. As per official website, i am exempt from travel restrictions.
However i have a valid visit visa (eTA) on my passport instead of work (W1) stamp as my previous visit visa is valid.
Would i be allowed to clear immigration of home country to return back to canada?
Does any one have similar situation. TIA!

I just travelled to the US with my valid PGWP and temporary resident visa. I came back to Canada with no issues and I had to quarantine for 14 days as per the government instructions.

oh great. I just called the airline I booked my ticket from and they said not to take the risk of travelling on visitor visa. Would you recommend me to apply for another visa (W-1)?

When did you travel? Did they not ask you at the boarding to canada any question

My visa was not a visitor visa. It said in the visa that I'm a worker so maybe that's different in my case. I travelled end of August early Sep this year
