Those who have a valid status, who applied for a visitor record before the expiry of their work permit, their application is processing faster.

Those who need to restore and apply for the work permit together, it is taking more time!

Because multiple people who has a valid status had theirs processed within 3 weeks, including mine.

My friend had extended his pgwp which could not be then a decision on it was required. He was rejected and now needs to restore and update his application.

We both applied together

So my current PGWP will be expired in Nov 2nd, 2021. Am I still eligible and if yes, when should I send my application?
