Am i eligible if i work few days after done my program before apply?

[hero_1235]

I received a grad letter on 4/28 and my visa will expire on 7/30. I thought and heard that I could work with a student visa or even done a program cuz I still have a visa. I've worked a few days already after my letter issued. I was thinking about apply PGWP however, apparently I can't work before apply.

I'll stop working but now I'm thinking about whether I apply for PGWP with my work record (only a few days and I think my company can't change my shift record and paycheck personally), do you think my application will be refused? Does someone or friend had same situation before? And how they went??

If you received program completion letter then you cannot work until you apply for PGWP. Apply for PGWP now.

Yes, I'll stop working and apply PGWP but if it's gonna be refused, I don't want to apply. So I was wondering if someone knows the same situation or experience, I wanted to know the progress will be going

Language test is now a requirement for PGWP too.

A couple of says working most likely lead to refusal. And why wouldn't you apply for PGWP. Why loose a chance for a work permit.

I was still confused about whether to leave Canada and work or go back. And if there is a high possibility of refusal, I don't want to waste my money on English tests and applications. I know how it sounds selfish but now I'm more debating about whether should I apply for PGWP or go back to my country

No one can tell you that. It is a personal decision. No harm in applying. You can work while you wait for a response.
