Hey everyone
I have a concern. I applied for PGWP yesterday but I forgot to write the study permit document number in it. I have written the UCI and attached the study permit copy to it and there was no * mark in that question either.
Is that okay or will there be any complications? I have just applied yesterday so can I withdraw and then reapply? Advice guys!
Hello! I hope you see this message! I actually made the same mistake as you and wanted to know how everything ended up going with your application? I too included the UCI number, however, I never entered the study permit document number because it never came up at required information even after I validated the application. If anyone has gone through this, can you please let me know what happened with your application? An advice as well would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

One of my friend did the same mistake. It didn't affect his application in anyway. His application was approved and he received 3 year PGWP.

Please post here when you receive it in hand. I have given my friend’s mailing address cuz I was living on a short term rental. Mailing address is of Newfoundland. I had received my study permit extension in a week’s time by mail. Hope my PGWP gets delivered by next Monday too

Will keep updated for sure...i will also give a visit to Service Canada and ask them if they can help me with printing the work permit earlier .
How can Service Canada help with this? It’s an official document on that authentic paper provided by CIC which is a different body. But tell me about this, maybe I dunno?

Hay guys, I got my work permit approval email today ..march 30th.
I studied 1 year graduate certificate and a normal trade certificate(i extended my study permit for this) and got the permit for 3 years.
My name was given twice on work permit(like steyn smith steyn smith) as i have given the name again on the last name, because i don't have a last name on passport.Do u guys know how to change name on it?Hope it won't create any problems in future
I took a 3 months break between courses and did not worked on sin.
Thank u all :)
Hi,

What was the total duration of study including the trade certificate?
