    Post Graduation Work Permit refused due to Unauthorized work

    Hi I'm in the same boat as you. I completed my program at May 15 and got PGWP May 30 (flagpole). During that time I was helping in my graduate advisor's lab to wrap up projects.

    Help! CEC, NOA might reveal unauthorized work before PGWP

    Thank you for sharing! Do you happen to have a template when you write your LOE? If there’s no sensitive info, would you mind sharing the template? It’s absolutely okay if if you don’t feel like sharing it too. Thanks again for your help & wish you a good night

    Help! CEC, NOA might reveal unauthorized work before PGWP

    Thank you for your suggestions! Can I follow up a question? Would you suggest me to include the unauthorized work when filling my "personal history"? And in that case, add an LOE to explain it? And would it be misrepresentation if I don't include this information anywhere in my application?

    Submit NOA or not? if accidentally worked between graduation & PGWP

    Congrats on your COPR! Glad to hear that it can work out fine without NOA. Just out of curious, have you heard of IRCC requesting NOA when processing the application? And would it be an issue if they find then that the income on NOA is higher than the T4 submitted, indicating income from another...

    Submit NOA or not? if accidentally worked between graduation & PGWP

    Hi there, I'm preparing documents to apply under CEC when I ran into a question. I accidentally worked in my advisor's lab for about 2 weeks between program completion & getting my PGWP. I'm not planning to claim that work experience in application, but the income from that period of work shows...
