Update!

My PGWP was about to expire on June 2023.
I applied on Feb 2nd, 2023 for an extension due to passport expiry(PAPER APP). Did not get anything back yet

I opted-in for the new extension policy last Friday, and got approved today 18 months from the approval date, not from the expiry date

The paper application is still in process.

And I don't know when to expect the new work permit to be sent by mail

Hello everyone your messages were very helpful to stay updated on the PGWP process.
Thought I would share my own timeline.

WP-EXT letter on Feb 2, 2023 (after around a day of biometrics update).

Application in Review on April 14 Morning

Application Approved on April 14 Afternoon before 5PM.

Good luck friends!
