PGWP working hours

[Harjotsingh1999]

hi,
I will be applying for my pgwp in a month.
I am only concerned about my working hours. I know I didn’t work more that 20 hrs during my school days. I am sure about it . It was around 18 or 19 per week.
But during my breaks i nailed it. I worked like 60 hrs in one week in tim horton with overtime and direct deposit legal payments. I basically worked for 42 hrs and rest 60-42= 18 hrs overtime. This was in winter break.
In summer i went extreme has two jobs one job in was 37 hrs period week and other was around 8 hrs per week.
Is this any issue of unauthorized work.
It was my official break so I thought I could work as much as i can.
Am i right?

During authorized breaks you can work as much as you want. Don’t be worried.

Thank you,
But why everyone says that one can work not more than 40 hrs in breaks.Is it just a dumb rumour?

More that you can work full-time which is usually 40 hours.

So exactly working more than 40 overtime doesn’t matter right?
No issues?

No issues. The amount of hours are not posted. It just says you can work full-time.

I don't know precisely how they exam things but would imagine you couldn't continue working full-time when school restarted. Nothing you can do at this point.
