same here, about there being no update, i was like gee thanks i had no idea >:(

Weird, I got a similar reply that my app was approved on October 21st but the officer just hasn't officially approved yet. And it is still 'in process' because it has to go to the printing and mail rooms. don't even know what to say about it. ??? CIC has sent a message to the officer to...

me too, says they are down on my cic and also on twitter.. i keep hoping these down times for maintenance will fix some error in our delayed files and hopefully come through with approvals but probably wishful thinking

yeah, lots of people from april, may, and june while july and september breeze by. i'm still waiting- applied on June 26th. here's the page for those people: http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/lets-share-timeline-pgwp-march-applicant-t284967.2535.html

Congrats BrinaBee!! That's great, almost 6 months, but at least it's over! I guess our 'forgotten' applications are all in a queue and getting allocated to get approved while July applicants get processed timely by other officers. :/

Hi, I am in the same situation, applied June 26th. Supposed to go to Europe in 4 weeks but still waiting for the PGWP. Luckily, I can keep working too.. I contacted my MP, they told me I would get my reply this week, today is the end of the work week and no reply yet so I will be contacting them...

Hey there, Yeah it's only valid till your passport. Before I applied for my PGWP, I looked online about it, it does say it somewhere on CIC and I also called the call center because my passport expires in December 2016 but I'm supposed to get a 3 year work permit and I will have to renew it...

yeah that's what they will say but call another MP in your area and say that yours is new and hasn't set up his office, but you really need help, can you help me or direct me to an MP that is responsible for my riding at the moment. That is what people in this forum did in Calgary and found...

Well it depends. They couldn't help me because if I'm not in their riding, CIC won't give them my info.. they were super nice about it though. My MP is Deepak Obhrai and I was told I am getting my approval this week, but I still don't have anything. They say they cannot push, but you're right...

Hey, do you know who your MP would be in Calgary? I am in this city, maybe I can help you find a phone number

Thanks @Stacey_K for updating these timelines!!

Yeah totally. You will just have to carry both passports. As long as the visa is valid, it is okay. I have carried two books for years, never had a problem.

Wow! that really is useless. well, seems pointless that I even sent a CSE. I'm so fed up. >:( >:( >:(

Hi guys, Has anyone had any luck getting a response from a Case Specific Enquiry before 30 business days!?

Hi, don't send them an email. Either call or visit in person. That's the only way you will get them to do something. I'm still waiting too but my MP gave me information that CIC was not initially giving to me.

Hi, have you contacted your MP's office?? I am waiting since June, I contacted my MP for help and they found out that it is approved but still processing and they gave me a timeline for when it will become official. Yet to see if they are right but depending on who your MP is, some are way more...

What area are you in? For sure the contact info is now updated on the parliament site. If your area's MP recently changed, try the MP of an area near you and they will direct you to who can help with your riding. No way you gotta wait till Feb, that's just insane.

This is insane. Any helpful info when you call?? I called last week so the lady today was like no point calling, there won't be any new info to get. However, she did say that when they send a reminder message to the officer, usually the officer gives me my application answer in a week unless...

I keep seeing a lot of May applicants getting their approvals and of course the July ones in the last two weeks or so. Can't seem to find many June approvals. Anyone from June hearing anything?? :(

Hi, I also applied on that day! I am still waiting but my application was approved on October 20th. My officer just did not officially approve it that day, made a note to go back and do it in the next 6 weeks :'( I don't know why he would do that. Anyways, CIC call agents have confirmed that...
