i think 45 days is for ideal cases. i mean some cases they have any complication or they have any doubts, may take more than 45 days.

But I think my case is very clear. Public university, 2 year master program, continuous studying for 19 months, school letter from both university and faculty, official transcript with average grade 90 and completion of thesis. I don’t see there can be any doubts...

Can I start working right after my last day of class? I’m still waiting for my Confirmation of Graduation so I can’t apply for PGWP right away.
