I apllied for Post Graduation Work Permit on 18th Jan, 2019. I saw in excel sheet that one person applied on 19th Jan, review of eligibility started
But for 18th Jan, nothing happened
Any suggestion ?

I applied on the 14th of January and am still waiting for mine. It looks like they're still working on earlier ones and that person maybe just got lucky. I would wait a few more days.

Hi all,

I was wondering, if I apply for a 1 year graduate program, how can I be eligible to extend my stay for up to three years with a PGWP. In the CIC website, it is said that usually the PGWP length depends on the duration of one's program; however, is there a way to avoid receiving one less than 3 years?

They processed 1st-7th Jan applications really quickly, now it seems that they've slowed down.

Hi! I submitted my PGWP application 2 weeks ago. I did not pay any biometrics fee as I did not see that in the options while processing the payments while submitting. I only paid the work permit fee which is required. Do we just need to wait for CIC to send us a letter to pay biometrics fee and have it done? Or should we do something about it proactively? Thank you!

Post here if you get biometrics request, i'll post here if i get it. Thanks

Hi! I applied 2 weeks ago and I did not get any biometrics request or biometrics fee request? Are all applicants expected to get that biometrics request? I haven`t paid any biometrics fee upon submission of application.

I applied on January 14th, got the review of eligibility on the 9th but I just checked and it's still not approved. Should I try calling the IRCC on Monday? I'm getting worried.

Hi guys. Can you help me with this questions
I got pgwp recently and I am yet to recieve the hard copy .I have valid TRV till nov 2019 of study permit so Can I cross the border with this or should I apply for TRV again?

TRV is not related to study permit expiry date.
Even if ur trv says student
U can still use it until it expires.
But make sure to apply for a new one with the work permit before it expires.

This for those who applied for pgwp within Canada.
