U r not allowed to work until ur study permit is approved because you are on restorationSo I applied for my PGWP after my student permit expired 5 days ago and applied to restore my status as a student. However I have seen some say you cannot work while waiting for it to be approved and that is an issue as I hear it takes 4 months or more. I cannot do anything for 4 months and all and need work. Is there anything I can do to get assistance or try and work temporarily?
Apply on paper and I did that too. So hopefully will get it soon.Does anybody know how long TRV processing is taking from inside Canada?
How you apply on paper? Can you pls tell me ??Apply on paper and I did that too. So hopefully will get it soon.

I have been regularly following this thread to get updates on the PGWP timeline so thank you very much all of you for providing updates regarding your applications. It helped me a lot to understand the actual timeline and not panic because my application had passed the average processing time a long time ago.
Also, I saw some people were confused about whether or not they can start a new job after their study permit/TRV and SIN are expired and the answer is yes (if you have already applied for PGWP and are on implied status). I accepted a job offer after my TRV and SIN were expired and I actually started working and received pay cheques as well and no issues. A lot of my other friends also did the same and had no issues so go on and start your dream jobs while waiting for a decision on your application because you can totally work on your implied status and start a new job even after the expiry of TRV and SIN.
