Hi Adnan, what is the update on this? Did coming clean negatively affect your application? My brother applied for PGWP [3 months ago now] and included a LOE noting he worked without authorization while he was a visitor waiting for a decision on his study permit, but we haven't heard back. His study permit is expiring in a couple days so I'm really worried that IRCC is going to reject the application after his study permit expires and issue him am exclusion order.
Have you heard of any positive experiences following a voluntary admission of working without authorization?
Hello I am sorry for the late reply, I can't tell if it has affected me negatively or not so far, since my Application is still processing, but I ordered GCMS notes, and it seems that I passed everything, and the only pending part is (Security) !
Technically, passing eligibility is an excellent indicator that they didn't take the "WORKING WITHOUT AUTHROIZATION" into consideration, but it isn't 100% guaranteed.
common sense, Security has nothing to do with work authorization at all, so I'm kinda relieved now that this thing didn't bite back !
I hope this helps
