PGWP withdrawal and reapplication

[Funchum143]

I am about to do the same. Do you have any advice on withdrawing and reapplying? I'd be curious to know if I need to wait a certain amount of time after withdrawing or if it can be done right away. I've seen mixed things online.

I also withdrew mine a 9 days after we submitted. Submitted on Jan 18, requested withdrawal Jan 26. Withdrawal confirmation January 27. I’m a bit nervous that they won’t accept my withdrawal. Maybe if’s best to withdraw as soon as possible. When did u apply?

I applied on the 18th as well. I have not withdrawn yet but am considering doing it tomorrow.

I started working when I submitted my second application however I made sure that I satisfied all requirements to work under implied status.

Why are you withdrawing? If your mistakes are only clerical in nature and is not grounds for misrepresentation, I suggest that you could just submit a webform to correct these.

My RCIC advised me to apply for my PGWP while I was on maintained status as a student. My study permit was set to expire before the end of my studies, so I applied to extend it before the expiration. My RCIC said I would be able to work, but it seems like they were wrong. You cannot work if you apply for your PGWP while on maintained status as a student.

I just received my study permit extension approval yesterday, so I now have a non-expired study permit. If I withdraw and resubmit the PWGP application, I should be able to work full time while the application is in progress.

any update on your new application ?

You can submit a webform for 1-3 and wait for IRCC response. For 4, (ideally) they will ask you to provide that information when processing instead of returning your application.

Now, if you don't want to do that and withdraw and resubmit instead, this is what you should do.

- Submit the withdrawal request.
- Submit the new application(you can do it right after submitting withdrawal) and explain in a letter that you have previously submitted and withdrawn an application and would like this one to be processed instead. Add the reasons for withdrawal.

If your 1st application has already reached the capture stage, you will lose the fees. If it hasn't, the fees can be applied to your 2nd application.

And yes, you can work while waiting for PGWP if you meet the conditions mentioned here.

hi, on 22 June , I applied for my Post-Graduation Work Permit, I mistakenly selected the option for a work permit with the same employer instead of new employer for open work permit. IRCC alr sent me a confirmation letter saying can can keep working with my current employer with same condition of job on 23 June. however i found another job with another employer. I submitted a request to withdraw on 8 July and received email saying IRCC had received my request and the office will determine if your application can be withdrawn and will issue a refund within 16 weeks of the withdrawal, if applicable.
my questions is:
Can I reapply the new pgwp right now before receiving decision of my withdrawal? and do you know how to reapply because all i seen on the website, there is no section for new applications, or I have to create a new account and submit a new PGWP application?

 

[delicanova1019]

I did not wait for the withdrawal decision and I applied my new PGWP after a few weeks.

For reapplication, its the same as new application but make sure to attach a letter of explanation why you had to withdraw the 1st application.

You have to be careful as few things can happen due to withdrawal. Loss of status, not being able to work, not qualify for PGWP are all a possibility.

hi, I submitted a new application for PGWP (for new employer), am I able to work right now or I have to wait for the Extended period of work (WP-EXT only except PGWP) to start working in a new place?

 

[delicanova1019]

I received my WP EXT immediately so I started working but I made sure to do it before my permit expires.

Hi, you mean WP EXT is for your new application? And the permit you mentioned is study permit?

Yes to both
