It practically seems stalled at this moment
To all users, applicants who have a background of coming from 3rd world countries or war torn areas or where bureaucracy plays a big role would see their PGWP took more time because police clearance and bureaucracies delay the process of getting green signals from those countries.

Hi, was confused with the whole process.

Why does it take officers at the border 30 minutes to get the PGWP when online it goes through a lot of time .

Since you mentioned police checks etc, doesn't that happen at POE ?

When does your passport expire? Was the course officially designated as taking 2 years to complete or did it take you two years to complete? Was it a full 2 years?

Yes it was a full 2 years course officially designed. My passport is valid until 2026.
