Hi everyone,
My PGWP expires on June 27,2021.. I have already applied for PR on May 19,2020 and it’s still in progress.. My spouse has OWP expires on the same day as mine June 27,2021... Now I am eligible to apply for both BOWP or PGWP Extension( I prefer PGWP extension as it has a validity of 18 months and its independent of PR)
Can you please suggest which one to apply and can I add my spouse as well in my PGWP extension application ?
If I can apply, what are the documents I need to provide them ?
Note: I am in NOC A level job for more than 2 years now.

I was told to restore even though I am technically on implied status due to a pending visitor extension application. So I chose to restore.
The restoration fees will be refunded once the visitor application gets approved. I heard they are approving both at the same time. Visitor for 3 months and OWP for 18.
Just follow the Come to Canada tool. They will setup your document checklist based on your answers.
Hi Alex.
Congrats !!
Do the VR 3 months and the WP 18 months overlap for the first 3 months ?
Thanks !!
I applied on Feb 10.
My previous PGWP was already expired on Sep 2020. Hope it doesn’t affect to the processing time..because I heard some people still have valid PGWP got a temporary 2months visa after applying few days later. but I haven’t got anything yet..

Mine too expired in Sept. I received two updates early morning eastern time today. Hoping for some good news over the next 2-3days.
Feb 8th. Status is the same, but when looking at eligibility down on that list, it says they are looking if I meet the eligibility requirements.
