Hi All, My employee have applied for my work permit extension on July 4th, 2022 and I got an approval email but not the hard copy. I want to travel to India in Jan. Can anybody suggest what are the next steps in order to step out of country and get back hassle free.
Apply for a trv if you don't have one.

1. How to apply and
2. what are the required documents, is the hard copy of work permit needed to apply try or visa
2. How long it takes to receive an try/ visa?
1.Come to Canada tool, say work and answer questions. Finally checklist will be generated. You apply for TRV.
2.Answered above.
3.processing time is 24 days online(visit visa inside canada) and yes you need hard copy. I would call ircc and ask if they are ok with approval letter.

Good day, I need some help please. Last year 2021 IRCC came out with this public policy for PGWP holders to extend their work permits for up to 18 months which I was eligible for but I didn’t get the full 18 months because my international passport was expiring. I only got it for 11months. I submitted my pr though PNP since in 2020 but It is still in process. I applied for a BOWP thinking I was going to get it since I have a PR application in but it got refused due to the fact I have employment restrictions on my PNC. My question is, can I apply to claim the remaining 7 months on the PGWP? Even if it’s an extension from a public policy program? I need to restore my status back as a worker and I have been given 90days from October. I applied for visitors visa but I just realized I didn’t get the full 18months in the last pgwp which just expired on July 10 ,2022
