There is no need to panic, we cannot help you. I saw someone who applied February recently received approval 2 weeks ago. Simply have a nice cold beverage and wait. You are still well within the processing times.You are almost near the end.
Applied in Jan. Still waiting for any update, so the only thing you can do is wait.
Hello everyone! Does anyone know how much time is it taking for people to get approved for PGWP with biometrics?
Same as non-biometric applications, it will take 4-6month from the submitted day.
Hello! I applied for my PGWP on 7th July from outside Canada with biometrics (I gave them when I applied for my study permit). I am still within the processing time period (176 days at the moment I think) so trying to be patient. I am just a little concerned though that my application may be delayed or not be approved because I am applying from outside of Canada? I was wondering if anyone else had theirs approved despite applying from outside the country.
Thanks!
Thanks!

It doesnt matter where you are applying from, once you fill your application when you sp was still valid, you filled it correctly and truthfully, you should have no issues. Best wishes
Does anyone know (or has done the same) whether I can START the online application for a PGWP while waiting for my final transcript? I just defended my thesis and hope to apply asap. It asks questions whether I can confirm that I already finished my degree, etc. but I'm wondering whether that applies to when I submit the application. Just curious whether everyone waited until they had they final transcripts to start the online application (I would wait until I have my transcripts to submit the application). Thank you!
I was literally at the same boat! And I applied after thesis defence without final transcript but with the letter from my school saying I have completed everything and my transcript would be updated in October (it is already and I have added it to my application through the webform). My sp was expiring at that tome and I got a job offer, so had to apply asap. I talked to a visa consultant who assured that I could apply without final transcript and attach it to my application later when I have it updated.
btw I’m still waiting for the decision.
