Post Graduate Work Permit Processing Time (PGWP)
- Thread starter A_Smile
- Start date
Hi,
So I just saw on my portal that my application was approved today (2021/05/25 ). I did not receive an email notification or even the digital version of the PGWP.
2 years of validity. My passport expires in 2023, after its renewal I'll probably be able to extend the permit for an additional year
I wish you all good luck, don't give up and be patient
not that crazy, the processing time is 43 days now so it's actually about what cic promised lmao
63 days is what is in 9 weeks, its 20 days above what they quoted. (Which is almost 3 weeks in case you couldn't do the math) Plus that is right now, two weeks ago this was 36 days, so back in March it was definitely lower, due to less people graduating at that time. LMAO
No. I am a dependent under my partner's PR application.
I applied bridging for her and she got approved (1 year extension to her open work permit from my study permit). Meanwhile, I lodged PGWP. UCI number is unique to you - so if you apply for PR they will be able to see that you have a PGWP application too as it is the same number to your PR application UCI number. To remain you need a valid status, therefore PGWP for now and once you are approved your status change to permanent. Regardless, IRCC is aware that you are planning to stay long-term basis of current immigration programs they've released to accommodate international students to transition to permanent residency.
Good luck!
