Hello everyone,

I recieved my work permit on 23rd December and immediately applied for a trv.

Today, I received an approval letter for my trv (applied inside canada) in my email today but my status hasnt been updated on the portal. I also havent recieved my instruction letter. I was wondering if i can send my passport in now with the letter of approval recieved in the email. I would really appreciate if somebody could share their instruction letter with me, so i dont get anything wrong.

I realise that i should be posting on trv forum, but that forum has been spammed by two, three individuals having impromptu conversations with other messages missed by patrons.

Thank you and hope everyone is doing well.
Just wait for the Passport Request letter. You need that letter to put inside the envelope. Although you have to wait because of sat sun mon, it is better to send it on Tuesday via Canada post.

You are allowed to work even after the expiry date mentioned on your WP Ext letter . Go to CIC website >PGWP Page> It is clearly mentioned you can continue your work if in case you dont get any response as per the mentioned date or waiting for response.Take a screenshot and share it to your HR.
 
I'm asking for my sister-in-law. Any help will be appreciated.

Visitor Visa/Study permit both expire in July 2023. Graduation is May 2023. She wishes to apply for PGWP.

1) Does she apply for the PGWP before applying for a new TRV?
2) Does she need the PGWP to be approved before applying for the TRV? I understand it's a 6 month wait at the moment.
3) Can she stay in Canada on implied status having applied for a PGWP, but with no TRV (Obviously not leaving the country until she has both)?

1. You have to apply for PGWP before you apply for TRV because you would need the permit as a proof to get a new TRV.
2. Yes
3. Yes and in addition she can also work on implied status.

They might ask you to show your original work permit when you re-enter Canada.

Thank you very much,
 
My PGWP got approved today. It shows final decision as approved. It says on my portal "Your application was approved. Check your messages below for details"



I don't see any new messages though. Is this normal? Also how long does it usually take to receive the physical permit through mail? Thanks!!
 
Yeah that's what I thought too. I completed my program last year so it was my initial PGWP application.
