PGWP Extension

[dukhi]

Hi,

I got 2 years and 2 months on my PGWP because of my passport expiry date. But now my passport has been renewed. Can anybody guide me to how to extend my PGWP?

I have the same issue.
I renewed my passport and not my PGWP. My work permit is valid until August 2019. can i travel out of Canada and come back in this period.?

your suggestions will help us.

Thank you

In addition to PGWP you need a valid TRV to come back into Canada so if your TRV is still valid yes you can travel & come back.

If TRV is expired you need to apply for a new one otherwise you cant come back.

Thanks for the reply.

I have a valid TRV untill August 2019. My work permit shows my old passport number.
I need travel out of Canada. am worried that my new passport is not linked to my work permit.

I thought of applying to extension of my work permit in May 2019 after my travel (as i still have 4 months for the expiry)
Does immigration officer stop me for not linking my new passport to my old TRV and work permit...?

Do i need t apply for extension and go on my vacation.?

which is better..?

As long as they are still valid you dont need to do anything just because you got a new passport, you just need to travel with both old/new passports.
