I was wondering if there are any applicants who are waiting for a PGWP approval and then plan on applying for an express entry later. I applied in early July and guessing by the current backlog my application won't be processed until Jan or Feb next year. I checked and I do have enough points to apply for an express entry but I am confused as to whether I should wait until my PGWP is processed. I am not sure if CIC allows for another application when one is already in progress. If there is anyone else in the same boat could you please help me out ? Thanks.

Hey, I did the same a month ago. These applications are not related to each other, so feel free to apply for both at the same time

Hey guys! I just have a question - did everyone who got their application approved receive approval letter within 3 weeks? It's been about a month and I have yet to receive mine so just wondering if I am the exception or if it has been happening with others too.
