Four-year maximum – Work in Canada
- Thread starter woshihaoxiongdi
- Start date
It depends, that rule went into effect in 2011 I believe, so you would have at least until 2015 before you can hit the 4 year term.
MY PGWP actually started on summer of 2011, and expiring next summer. Hopefully, I can get a 2 year extension.
