Just sharing my timeline and situation to help guide others.
I applied for my PGWP on May 3rd from within Canada. IRCC doesn't have my biometrics on record as I never had to give biometrics on previous temporary residence permit applications. My PGWP application was subsequently stalled when biometrics collection was put to a hault in Canada.
With the biometrics requirement now lifted, I'm waiting anxiously for a decision. Applications status is currently "In Progress".
Will inform you good folks when I receive a decision.
