Post Graduate Work Permit Processing Time (PGWP)
- Thread starter A_Smile
- Start date
Hi guys! I applied May 15th. Eligibility review changed to: we are reviewing whether you meet the eligibility requirements on July 20. The application was approved today finally.
I checked this and I don’t think I can apply under this as I don’t have any letter from the employer to support the application. I’ll ask the employer if they can provide some documentation. Thanks anyways!
Updated trend line:
Takeaway: right now applications from 75 days ago are being approved.
Predictions: 5/16 -> 7/30 to 8/4, 5/17 -> 8/5 to 8/10, 5/18 -> 8/11+

Hey guys,
I was approved on 16th july but haven’t received my physical work permit yet. Now the problem is that I’m having to travel outside Canada tomorrow. What should I do?

Nothing you can do really. But do you have a valid visa? If yes maybe you are able to come back in September when travel restrictions are set to be lifted...? If no then it's gonna be a tough situation (maybe ircc can issue the permit outside of Canada? idk)
Hey,
I applied May 19th (inland) and there's no movement yet. I wasn't working full time then but i started working in June. Am I supposed to let IRCC know that I started working? I left the employment part blank when I filled out the PGWP forms.
