Congratulations ostiela. Very happy to hear this. Hope so i will get approval soon.
Hey, I have the approval for my study permit extension this november 5th, and I finished my studies in August. Even though I have applied on April, they only gave me the approval months after finishing college. The expiration date is for november 30th. So, what if I do not receive the physical copy before it expires? how can I renew my SIN number and be allowed to work?
I have applied for the PGWP yesterday.
So let me understand you applied for your PGWP after you got the approval for your permit extension. if that's the case you have the right to work because you have a valid student status, just wait a bit and you should normally receive and EXT-WP letter that allows you to work, if not reach for the IRCC in order to confirm.
for the Sin you are allowed to work with your old one till you receive the physical copy , but again you can confirm with the IRCC
Hi guys,
This is my timeline:
I applied for Study Permit Extension on May 11th.
My original Permit expired on July 30th.
I finished my Program on August 9th.
I received my letter of completion on September 6th. I stopped working since then.
I am still waiting for my Study Permit Extension. My question is How much time do I have to apply for PGWP and which would be the date to start counting? Some people say 90 days others 180 days?
I would appreciate any insights about these. This time have been nerve-racking. Please, help!

Yeah! I just received the WP-EXT for PGWP yesterday saying that I can work. Just not sure if I need to renew my SIN number before get back to work. If yes, I need to wait for the physical copy to renew it.
Thanks tho!
You can work with the same SIN till you get the approval and get the physical copy there you can renew the SIN , for now you can work with no issues
Normally its 90 days, since you will not able to work anyway I would advice you to just apply for the PGWP right now, as the handling time for PGWP is over 150 days now, if you receive the answer for the study permit extension before the PGWP you can call the IRCC and inform them so they can update your info to receive the EXT - WP letter
Good luck
