Hello I applied on June 14th and I'm still waiting :( I guess I'm the last one. They didn't even start to review my eligibility and my spouse's eligibility as well. I tried to call there but couldn't talk to an agent. Anyone who applied on June 14th still waiting?
I am the same like you . Applied on June 16th and have not received anything.

I was the only applicant on my application. I don’t think it is allowed to add dependents on pgwp because its open work permit. After after obtaining one, u can apply for the work permit of dependents as long as u work in NOC A,O or B. And have 3 pay stubs.

Pls refer to cic.gc.ca for more infor

That shouldn't be the problem. You're just applying as a family. Application for all family members would be reviewed at the same time. It's important to have a full-time job in required NOC level, provide pay stubs, and a letter from the employer confirming responsibilities etc.

Spouse work permit depends on the main applicant pgwp and a job offer. It's a shame that it takes so long to process applications.

They are not even picking up the phone as they are receiving a high number of calls. I am surprised that applications are not reviewed in order....

I'm still waiting as well :( probably this long wait it's because they have to process all the student visas for the students that the classes start in September. Let's see...
