Hi everyone,

Just an update.

My wife graduated on Feb. 7th
She applied for PGWP on March 25th

Meanwhile, we applied for PR Family Class Sponsorship for her on July 10th
She got PR application number on Aug. 9th
Then Medical Request on Aug. 10th

Now today her PGWP got approved Aug. 12th

PGWP was supposed to be longer but I don't know we applied for her PR causes speed up her PGWP application.

Anyway, good lock to everyone.

Hi everybody! Long time lurker but I finally received a decision on my application and wanted to keep some people updated in case they had similar wait times

Application Submitted: June 18th, 2020.
LOE Submitted: October 8th, 2020.
Application transferred: November 10th, 2020.
Decision made: 15th August, 2022.

It took over two years for me to see my application approved! I had a complicated case as I worked over the 20hr limit and submitted an LOE to explain my situation and ask for a TRP (this was advised to me when I spoke with a lawyer). I got my email updating my status yesterday and saw I'd been approved! Hang in there :)
