Did you receive an email saying that there has been no updates prior to your approval( maybe a few days before?)

I got that last Friday but still no update on the status.
I think that's an automated email sent after every 30 days.

I got that email 2 weeks ago. A couple of my friends got that email a week before their pgwp was approved. Don't worry you will get it within a week or 2.

Probably, most of my friends got their approvals one week after the no-update email. Probably you will get yours today!

I applied on March 1. No news. I'm really anxious these days.

March 1 waiting.

Everyone, expect more than 41 days. It appears the current processing time exceeds what is updated last week.

Haha guys.
My application is approved. I applied on March 1. So 41 days seems accurate.
(It was updated shortly after my previous post.)

I didn't receive any email notification. It so far only showed "updated" on the cic page.

Good luck! We know IRCC started processing the March applications now!
