For recent approvals, since they are taking a long time to process.

- Do they set the PGWP expiry date on the date PGWP was issued/approved? Or the date that the application was sent?

Yes you can. But considering the numerous protests along the border and the federal govt’s declaration of an emergency expect road closures, long wait times, reduced staffing, etc. you might want to think twice. The situation is very volatile, but if you’ve made up your mind I would suggest you to contact the relevant border crossing you’ll be heading.
Hope this helps…
