Expecting to receive PGWP while I’m away from Canada

Hi everyone,

I’m a study permit holder who applied for my Post-Graduation Work Permit (PGWP) in July. It’s taking longer than expected, and I’ve already purchased a ticket to return home for a month. I’m concerned that I might receive my PGWP after I leave Canada.

Will I face any issues when re-entering Canada if I don’t have the physical PGWP with me when I re-enter?

Do I need someone to ship the physical PGWP to me, so I can present it upon my return?

Any insights or experiences would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!
