Yeah my study permit is expiring soon, ohh okay I almost thought a letter from the doctors was more credible considering we talking about a mental illness. Also what does ept mean? And what will I ask from my school, cause they can simply say I wasn’t full time
PGWP Refusal due to part time

- Start date
If you haven't done it yet, i would highly suggest going through this thread again.
Seek a professional opinion for trp...?
You can definitely attach doctors note in your Letter of explanation(LOE), as it builds a strong case for you, when reapplying pgwp.
Ept=appropriate
As for your school, get in touch with them first, and see what they have to say.
A LOE from my university and my own letter explaining the reasoning of the policy in the LOE
Man, they have been super lenient due to corona. Just add corona depression to your LOE and I'm positive they will approve it.
No I am not playing it’s just that I was part time in year 2018 not 2020 when corona was an issue so adding that wouldn’t be viable. Also I wasn’t able to get a letter from my school. They couldn’t help with that. Do you have any other approach in mind?
A really good LOE, like explaining your situation that you weren't able to enroll alongside a doctors note might save you.
Or best, seek a professional advice from an advisor, like your school's international student dept (if your school has one), if you already tried, try again

A doctor’s letter would be more credible if you had to take time off due to illness but your school would have also agreed for you to take time off due to a diagnosed medical issue. In your situation you couldn’t get into a class and you’re trying to get a note that would somehow justify not being able to register for a course. When it comes to medical leave or medical reasons you really need concrete proof of a serious medical issue where you re eI Ed ongoing treatment not just a few appointments. When it comes to medical absences schools are also usually part of the conversation at the time of the illness.
Hi, could you share how you applied and got approved the second time? Did you submit a letter of explanation? What did you say in the letter?
Hello,
I'm posting on behalf of my boyfriend in a similar situation.
My boyfriend graduated from university during summer 2021, and applied for his PGWP sometime in December 2021. His study permit expired March 2022, while he was waiting on his PGWP to be approved.
Couple days ago, he got a message from IRCC that his application has been rejected. Their reasoning is that they assume he was a part time student for some semesters due to his transcript. But while he was a student, he petitioned for some courses to be removed from his transcript due to the bad grades that were dropping his GPA. He retook all the courses he petitioned to be removed from his transcript and got better grades. Now since the courses have been removed, and he submitted his transcript when he applied for his PGWP, it looks like he was a part time student during those semesters.
He is currently working full time, but the rejection letter says that he should stop working and apply to restore his status.
- If he restores his status, does he have to be a student again?
- Would it be possible to restore his status and reapply for his PGWP immediately?
I find this very strange, as I know so many students, myself included, who have taken time off school to work and have been a part time some semesters (when I couldn't afford full time tuition). We all got our PGWP approved with no issues, and I have even applied for my PR.
Today he got a letter from the university stating he was a full time student from his first semester to his last semester. The letter isn't really detailed, it just literally states "(Name) was a full time student from (start) to (finished). I told him to get a more detailed letter from his school but hopefully this will help his situation a bit.
I'm looking for way to help my boyfriend, because his application was wrongfully rejected. He has been trying to contact IRCC but he keeps getting the message "due to high volume of calls, your call cannot be transferred". Does anyone know what the next steps are to take? I would really appreciate any advice.
Thanks!

You can do two things:
You can re-apply for the PGWP and also stat that with a proper letter why in your transcript it says part time and also you can put a web form for your rejected application, give them a proper explanation and a letter from university you will get approved no problem
And I prefer not to work on SIN for now
Thanks
Can he re-apply with no valid study permit or visa? or restore his status before he re-applies?
Should he contact IRCC to send him a webform?
