PGWP and Covid 19

[bettercallsaul.]

I’ve graduated from college and got PGWP. Shortly after, I visited my home country and COVID thing pops up. Looks like I’m stuck now and not able to travel back.
The question is, any chances I can come back before my PGWP expires assuming I don’t have job yet?
Thank you!

Yes, you can return.

Yes, you can return.

Thank you.
I would be grateful, if you will share more details. In terms of, what I suppose to tell CBSA Officer on arrival, I mean in which category PGWP holder without job falls, in order to be approved entry Canada?
Thank you very much in advance!

Hi

Read carefully: https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/coronavirus-covid19/foreign-workers.html#essential


Essential (non-discretionary) travel for a temporary worker
Essential refers to travel for reasons that are non-discretionary and non-optional. The emergency orders under the Quarantine Act do not allow people to travel to Canada for optional or discretionary reasons, such as for tourism, recreation or entertainment.

As a worker, your travel is essential (non-discretionary) if you’re in eitherof these situations:

• You have a valid work permit and normally live in Canada.
  • This applies even if you’ve been laid off.
• You’re a worker who meets all of the following:
  • has a letter of introduction for a work permit (open or employer-specific)
  • has a valid job offer
  • can work once you enter Canada and complete your 14-day quarantine (unless you’re exempt)

You are going to need a quarantine plan, and perhaps other docs. make sure you plan properly, or you will not be allowed entry. CBSA does not guarantee entry even if you meet the conditions, it’s upon the discretion of the border officer, so be prepared!

hope this helps!
