Hi Omolola,

No word on my husband's application. I also didn't receive my PGWP via mail. I think they lost it, as I usually get mail from CIC in 3 - 5 days and it's been over 3 weeks, but no mail delivery.

I called CIC Call Centre and they said that I have to wait till 6 weeks is over, before they can request for a PGWP reprint. And as for my husband application they said it's done on a case-by-case basis and so since they are working on Aug 28 apps now, they will get to his application in due time.

More waaaaainting....

Hi everyone,

I'm facing a weird situation. My PGWP was approved back on Dec 22 and I received the in-Canada letter of approval. But I did not receive the PGWP in my mail till now, and I'm sure they have lost it or something as it usually takes a week to receive mail. They can not reprint another PGWP till 6 weeks is over.

In the meantime, my husbands OWP (which we applied for together) is still under processing. Our application was received on Sep 03 and I see that CIC is working on Sep 03 application.

Can anyone advice me on whether I should we send a Case Specific Enquiry now? Is it too early (as they are "working" on Sep 03) or should we wait another week?

As each day goes by I feel like I'm wasting time and that our application is in serious trouble. But then again I don't want to act prematurely and ruin my chances... :S
