You cannot raise a webform for the application on which decision is made. You need a new application to raise a webform. Also, its a must that you have to maintain full time status for pwgp. As your case is critical, I strongly suggest to drop another application with the help of immigration lawyer.
Can u please advice anyone in this group has gone through similar situation?

I'm not sure about this particular thread, but there are a lot of posts about people getting refused for being part-time (and getting approved during reconsideration).

Best bet is to get a (good) lawyer, explain you situation as best as you can and do as the lawyer suggest.
If you have emails from your school (if you were dropped from a course) or medical bills or any other supporting documents, attach them in the explanation letter.


Search the forum for pgwp refusal due to part-time and you will find a lot of posts.

All the best! I hope you get it!

Hi, I'm very sorry to hear that your application got rejected! I agree with the posts above that you should apply for a reconsideration and do it with a lawyer. You'll have to write a Letter Of Explanation as to why that part-time semester happened in the first place.
I strongly believe that you will get an approval after that because the situation like yours is very common and I've seen posts on this forum from people getting approved after getting a refusal for the very same reason.
Most likely this could've been prevented if you had attached a LOE in the first place but I'm sure this can still be fixed. Best of luck!

Hello everyone, (helping a friend)

I have a question.
Is 3/5 courses considered a part-time?
My friend has only one semester like that and the others were 5/5 the reason is because when pandemic happened they still have to do in-person laboratory class but only 8 students were allowed to admit per semester for physical distancing inside the laboratory.
Thank you.

It’s better to explain the situation (LOE). Also, if he can obtain a document from school support his explanation just to be safe and save time.

It’s fine, because of the pandemic they’ll understand. Just detail it in the LOE, and ask your university to clarify this in a letter if they’re able to do so.
