Applied on July 19th in BC, current status changed to "Profile updated" today. However, there is no new message or file to read, the application status page is exactly the same as before, and my current status has changed back to "submitted". Hopefully, some officer is working on my file and i can get a real update soon! Hope you guys get some updates soon as well!
All the best to you! Thanks for sharing!

Brother I am here waiting from September 20,2020 no response yet , application transferred to Etobicoke on Feb 2 , GCMS notes say no adverse info. It's been 13 months now. I hate IRCC for the depression tehy have caused me.
Are you an inland applicant? How did you extend your health card for the time being?

Inland. Have insurance with my employers. People be patient , everyone will get PGWP , it's just their will(CIC) when then want us to get what we actually deserve in a quicker timeframe. It's sad but what can we do except wait and pray.
Doesn't IRCC send a message after you submit your application with a letter saying that you can work without any restrictions for any employer until a specified date or a decision on your application is made, whichever comes first. I would assume that the date came first since it's been a year for you. Are you sure that continuing to work is legal?

If you are a recent graduate you can get a discount for health insurance, GuardMe sells graduate insurance but check with your school for their insurance provider. Many employers don't cover your health insurance until after the 6 months or so.
