Question about Post Graduate Work Permit (PGWP)

[bingliusmart]

Hi All:
I got my PGWP after my undergraduate study in 2009, then in 2010 Sep I went to Graduate School which will end in Dec 2011. After I graduate in 2011, can I apply for PGWP again for another 3 year?

Reason to ask is I'm waiting for my CEC and worried about the timeline. My current PGWP will expire on May 2012. Hopefully my CEC will be approved by then. However in the worst case scenario, what can I do to be able to work while waiting for the immigration after May 2012? Anyone has any ideas or suggestions?

One solution I'm thinking is that if my wife go back to school in 2012 and obtain study permit, then I apply a spouse work permit?

Thanks in advance for any advice.

Nope, PGWP is a one shot deal. You had your PGWP and you won't get another.

Is it possible to ask for another year then? Since I was under study permit for a year during the 3 year period? Thanks.

You can ask, but CIC won't give it to you.
