Hi all,
Thanks for sharing your updates! I applied for PWGP on Sep 18 from BC. Under Review of Eligibility, it says: "We are reviewing whether you meet the eligibility requirements." I did not check this before, but what does this mean?

Thanks!

When i spoke to IRCC, the agent you guided me through asked me to pay the fees and attached the reciept with the Letter of Explanation when i submitted the pgwp application. But i wander they would accept that way. I am bit confused right now if i had to submit a separate application as the agent disnt ask me too. The mail which i have got from him states that and thats how i did it.

In your GCKey account, if you view your application status, the Review of eligibility section will change from "Your application is in progress. We will send you a message when we start reviewing your eligibility." to something like "We are reviewing whether you meet the eligibility requirements."

Hey guys, I am wondering if the cases with gap years in school and LOE always take like 5-6 months to process? Anyone in this situation got approved within 3-4 months? Thanks!

Hey guys.

i am much worried right now. I submitted my PGWP application on Sep 9th,2020. On Dec06,2020 i received the correspondence letter but after that I did not receive any update yet. I have everything settled down and just got my first full time job and I am worried that my application will be rejected because i took a semester off on Fall 2017 due to the college strike and i did not include a explaination for it :( anybody give me some advice. I just sent a webform to have explaination for my gap

You should have sent your explanation earlier, but hope it reaches the officer before he decides anything

Applied Sept 18. Today I got an email that there was an update to my application, when I checked it now says "We are reviewing whether you meet the eligibility requirements. " and also sent me a correspondence letter confirming my bio-metrics

When can I expect to receive approval?
