Did you get eligibility review etc before ? Or was it directly an approval ? Thank you.
Post Graduate Work Permit Processing Time (PGWP)
- Thread starter A_Smile
- Start date
Yes, Yesterday I checked the IRCC website, it said "we are reviewing your eligibility ....." (no email notification as well)
That's why I login and checked the status this morning.
Congratulations.Hi all, I wanted to update. Here's my timeline.
Applied on: June 25th 2022
Eligibility review on: December 5th 2022
Approved on: December 6th 2022
Now waiting for the hard copy
Good luck everyone! This process is very frustating - trust me, it's not the first application I've done. Hang in there!
Ps. I did send a message through the Web Form about a week ago saying that the processing time was exceeded (it was around 145 days when I applied in June). I don't know if that helps to accelerate the process, but it's not the first time I've tried that and within a couple of weeks, I got accepted. Just saying..
Usually they take current processing time as reference, which is 166/168 days, but I am surely gonna try this if I do see any update by next week. Thank you.

Congratulations! Just for clarification this was inland online PGWP application, eh? I applied July 22, still haven’t heard.
How should we deal with a situation like this please? As in, if it takes 5 months or more for the PGWP to be approved, and they give the interim authorisation only for 4 months, then do students usually stop working after the 4 months and wait for the approval?
Any advice would be very helpful. Thank you so much!
Hi, I have applied for my PGWP in september and I received a work authorization letter till jan 10th, where i can stay back and work in the country till i get a response on my application. With just one 1 month to go and a two-week christmas break in between, I am beginning to worry if i will receive a response before the due date (Jan 10th).
Has anyone been through this or is in a similar situation? I'm unsure how to go about this...should I send a web form to extend the date on the letter or mayb apply for an extension as a visitor to stay back in the country? I came here on a study permit which has already expired. I would appreciate all the responses I could get. Thank you

what did you do to stay back in the country? I applied on september 12th and my work authorization letter expires on jan 10th 2023. My study permit has also expired. I was hoping this would come through but with barely a month left and with 2 weeks of holidays in between this month, I am beginning to worry.
Hi, did you submit the webform after the due date on the letter to get a response or before? i have time till jan 10th, 2023 so im confused if i can stay back and work without any status in the country. my study permit has expired and i was hoping this would come within the month but on reading everyone's conversations here it seems unlikely with this backlog. Any advice would help. Thanks
Yeah bro...I applied on 6th June... nothing yet . Keep me updated if you get something in your portal.
