And here I was, thinking that the PGWP process waiting period would be less stressful than the one for the study permit. Heh.

I applied on May 12th.
WP-EXT on May 13th. (Until Sept)
Study permit expired on July 30
Passport valid until Q1 2025
No irregularities when it comes to my studies. Maintained full-time status. Graduated top of my class. Heck, I even only worked part-time the whole time even when I could've worked full-time. Just wanted to play it safe.
Eligibility status: We will send you a message when we start reviewing your eligibility.

I know that my application has as good a chance of being approved as any other that has been approved before....and yet. So nervous.

I'll keep you updated!

Best regards.
Update!

Pgpwp was approved today! Took them 3 months and 3 days to approve it. Pretty standard time. Sadly, my new address is not reflected in my approval letter (i moved to a new place after i sent my application. Sent a webform to let them know but didn't work apparently). Good thing i have a mail forward!

Pretty happy overall. Good luck yo y'all!
