I have a friend who applied on paper in the middle of June (paid the full amount). She called CIC today and they told her that they haven't done any paper applications past June 5th yet.
So, their delays are huge and not only for online applicants.
Got my PGWP in the mail today!
Applied: May 9th (paid 100$ through CSE in early July, without the request from CIC)
Blank Update: June 8th, July 24th, July 31st, August 7th, Sept 6th
PGWP Approval: Sept 18th
Mail Delivery...
Got an email from CIC this morning saying that my application has been updated. Logged into my CIC account and it says that the application has been approved, status - closed. Finally!!!!! ;D
Paid $155 when applied, then paid $100 July 2nd and uploaded the receipt in about a week through CSE...
