Study permit Extension Processing Time
- Thread starter R_P
- Start date
Hi Everyone ,
I applied for study permit extension on 24 Sept 2019 , still waiting for decision. I used every method to get information about this delay :
web form : 3 times
Called and spoke to IRCC agent : more than 16 times including today' call
Study permit expired : 30 November 2019
Graduated on 28th January 2020
Currently on implied status and yesterday I applied for post graduation work permit.
Today I Called to IRCC and received a unexpected answer about study permit extension application :
Agent said that your study permit extension application is randomly selected for quality assurance purpose and It will take time up to April 2020 for final decision .This is shocking for me . The second shocking statement for me is agent said , even you applied for post graduation work permit but cannot work full time because you are on the implied status of student so you can only work 20 hours per week .But when I asked from her that your website is saying you must stop working as a student after you received official confirmation of study completion .Then she was not able to answer my this question.
Then she advised me to sent a web form to case processing center
Edmonton , I refused to do that because that is useless , I asked from her , please provide me other alternative for contact , then she said you can write a letter to Edmonton office about this situation and write URGENT on it and send through registered mail. so I did that , sent a letter to Edmonton . I wrote everything , how right now so many students in this situation , please come up with new rule or policy for students graduated under implied status to apply for PGWP.
Thank you for reading .

its been 101 days. I am still waiting for my study permit extension to get approved. It is really frustrating to wait for this much long
Hi there, wonder if you get approved? Or if there is any progress in your application if you don’t mind sharing. Thanks!
If you are wondering about your application from last November, don't be!
They literally skipped November 17-31st applications to process December and January applications. Someone said they will revisit our files this Wednesday so fingers crossed.
Source: I and many others who applied within those two weeks are yet to receive any updates about our applications.
Yess it has been approved after 120 days exactly from my date of application.They online give me extension of about 25 days for only applying pgwp
Hi, thanks for reply. Yes i applied on Nov 26
((((It’s been 150 days exactly and i have yet to see any update. Also my eligibility is not even checked yet
i saw that they only read my attached letter on January
