Congratulations.

When did/will your first PGWP expire?
When you submitted your application did you provide a copy of the stamp on your passport of when you entered Canada?
Did you provide a copy of your current PGWP?

Thanks.

My first one expired on July 17th, 2021.

Since my passport was newly extended, I didn't have any stamp on it. So just the first page.

No I didn't provide the copy of my old pgwp

Thanks for the information.
I wanted to ask you another question, in form imm5710 what option did you select in the section: What type of work permit are you applying for ?
Did you select open work permit or PGWP?
This is confusing me.
Thank you.

I applied on 12th July. Anyone around this timeline?

Also, I had attached an explanation letter in additional docs section, stating the public policy eligibility. Is that the right way to submit the letter?
