I am an American who graduated from a QC university back in 2020. My post-graduation work permit is expiring in May. I wasn't initially planning to stay here, but I've met someone I love and it's now very important to me that I find a way to stay in Canada for at least a few more years. PGWP...

First and final bump

Hey guys, just FYI I got approved after about a month and a half! Not sure if it was related to COVID and wanting to restrict travel between CA/US, but my application had a front and back page cover letter with explanations about why I did not go full time in the two semesters, along with a note...

Hi, I'm planning on travelling by air to visit family in the US for the first time in a long time over the holidays. I currently have a post-graduation work permit and was wondering if there will be any difficulties leaving to the US and then coming back a few weeks later given COVID and...

Same day I applied for it but nothing yet : / Good to hear they're being processed, anyways.

Good to hear, thank you.

Bump, I applied online before that message was there but I have gotten no response and have not been able to reach anybody over the phone about it. No idea if my application is still valid or not. That's pretty crazy that you have to send in original documents for the mail application when you...

I just got hired for a job, but the only document I have with my expired SIN number is one in which it says the expiration date right next to the SIN number. Going to try to just show them a picture of the SIN number on the form (without the expiration date) and not bring in the form itself, but...

I applied around the same time. No update, no way of checking my application's progress, nothing.

I saw that... Can I ask how it is that you know that? I just really don't want to be given a job offer but turned down because the number is expired. I haven't read anything about the expired numbers anywhere.

Just applied for a post-grad work permit and have implied status here. I have an expired 900 number SIN and i need to work. Sent in a SIN online application (only that and mail applications are available right now) last week. No estimation at all for how long the application will take, and...

No, they were a couple years ago. I've prepared a few letters to include in my application and understand this will lessen my chances of getting the permit, but I'm hearing very conflicting things about if I can work under implied status or not.

My advisors at school tell me that I am not technically allowed to work, and yet most of what I read online doesn't seem to confirm that at all. I'm not sure if I can start working or if I need to move home : ( Bump

Hi, I'm an American graduate from a QC University who is applying for my PGWP from within Canada. I had severe mental health problems for two semesters when I was in school and did not finish the 4 classes that I needed in those semesters for them to have been considered "full-time" status. I'm...

I'm pretty sure i do not qualify to work in that online applictation period because i did not meet the requirement of being full time during my entire time in school: that "They met the requirements for working off campus without a work permit under paragraph R186(v) (that is, they were a...

first off, i'm a US citizen and now a graduate from a school in QC. the PGWP should be straightforward for most graduates, but i had a semester in which i did not meet the full-time requirement (at least 4 classes completed each semester) due to mental health problems, and so they can possibly...
