Yes it did got approved. My port of entry was Montreal. I was asked by the officer if I’m working somewhere. I informed him my PGWP is in implied status. That’s it! No other questions were asked.
If you’re applying for PGWP from outside canada and you’re planning to come back, choose the option for PGWP(within canada). I made the mistake for completing (outside canada) application. And later on end up getting that approved and have to withdraw it and pay for another application for PGWP(inside canada). This way my work permit got delivered at my address in canada. If you’ll gonna apply from outside Canada, then the process will be same as study permit (get it stamped first then collect work permit from port of entry).
