You WP issued date will be the date they approved your application, not the submission date.

Thank you. One of my friends recently told me that he got closed work permit with the submission date, so I would like to verify if it happens with others as well.

Hello everyone,

I applied for pgwp extension paper based due to passport expiry. The document were delivered on 7th December.

I am not able to link the application online so I called IRCC today and they told me they have not received the application and told me to resend to new station 009.

When i called again irrc agent told me we cannot link paper based application at all.

Has anyone experienced this issue before?
How long does it take to link paper app
