Hello Cyas33,

Can you please check to confirm what date that email was actually sent by CIC. I wonder whether it was sent last Friday or today.

That is good news by the way.

Cheers!

Hi,
I applied my work permit on 3 may 2015, I did'nt get any request for remaining fees, can any one tell me that i have to pay the fees once they request me or i have to pay now.
Because on the 1st page of this group their is information posted by "Jubear" to pay the fee so i am confused that either i have to follow the way as he said or i have to wait for message from CIC and then i have to pay the remaining fees.

I called today, a couple of minutes ago to CIC call center. Some guy answered, and i explained that i have submitted my application on 11th March, and submitted extra 100$ fee on 20th May. And since then, i am just waiting. It is surprising, but the guy instantly answered, that you have to wait 3 more months from today to receive your work permit.
When i asked me, that why your website is showing that applications till 20th March have been processed and it is not justified that you take extra 3 more months, after 100 days have already passed. He answered right away, all of this is not going to change anything against your case, you have to wait and its not in our hands........... :mad: :mad:

I heard the same thing from cic too, OMG does it means us need to wait another 3 months? What about the previous three month we have been waiting?

Jawadchoudary,

I find it strange that after paying $100 on May 20th when CIC requested for it, they have taken more than a month since then to approve your PGWP. Strange!

I was wondering; can you check your IMM5710E form that you submitted to CIC and see if there's information you provided that they might have questioned.

If you believe that everything is alright on the form, I suggest that this time round don't call them, but rather send CIC an email at question@cic.gc.ca

I believe that if they receive a complaint/email of concern on record with facts such as when you applied, paid fees etc, then they will have to look at it. Sometimes people forget phone calls and CIC is extremely busy. So try an email that CIC will have on record.

Your situation is getting strange.

Cheers!

That's a good idea. But can you let me know, how can i check my already submitted form. I can not download them anymore, since they have asked for 100 $ fee. All of its is coming like words, and you can not click to download what you have uploaded before. Or do you recommend me to check the application copy that i saved in my computer after submitting the application. Can you guys access your files and download them from CIC account?

Thanks

Why they said the same thing to you. They must have provided you with some reason. To me, they said, we have sent a message to upper heads and after message you have to wait 3 months. The decision can take up to 3 months but it can be made earlier than that as well.
Can you let us know, what reason they gave to you?

Yes, I meant the app copy you saved on your computer. And no, the submitted files are not accessible on CIC.

In your email also indicate your
1. Application Number
2. UCI Number
3. Document Number

Its important that CIC refers to your file using those 3 numbers.

Hi everyone,

need help in renewing pgwp. "Which situation best describes your work situation?" what do i choose for this question?

Also do you need LMIA if renewing PGWP? I only got 1 year as my passport was expiring.

Please help.

They didn't give me any reason, the agent seems not so familiar with her job and I called them later, a male agent answered me and he told me he flaged my file, hopefully the processing agent will take a look at it and give me feedback

Did CIC explicitly say on your current PGWP that you could renew it once you get a new passport?
