Hi everyone, I am wondering if anyone can provide any insight or was in a similar position as me: I received a PGWP upon graduating from university, but it was issued until the date of my passport's expiration date (I should have 3 years). I renewed my passport in February 2023 and then...

Same! I applied on paper January 18, 2024 and no updates so far. Any news for you?

Hi! I also applied on paper to extend my PGWP. I mailed my application on January 18, 2024 and so far no updates. Did you receive any updates?

For anyone wondering, I called the IRCC this morning and was told that the 6 months would basically be forfeited. A little frustrating to say the least, since had I known it would be issued from the date of application, I would have extended my PGWP on paper, but the IRCC only clarified this...

Thank you for your answer! I thought they would extend it from the date of expiry, so applying either on paper or via opt-in would have resulted in the same expiry period. Unfortunately, it looks like I might have to miss out on the remaining 6 months then, but I will talk to IRCC first.

Hi everyone! I recently had to have my old work permit amended because of a mistake IRCC made (wrong country of birth). I also still have a valid visa that I applied for using the old work permit. Since I have a new work permit now, which has a new document number, is my TRV invalid? Will I...

I will working towards the designation while working but it'll take roughly 3 years. Is a designation for NOC 1111 required?

Hi all, I landed a job as a tax associate at one of the big 4 accounting firms. I was looking at the NOC codes and it seems it’ll either be 1311 or 1111. I’m a bit confused since I’ll be mainly doing tax work but these job specifications are more geared towards accounting or auditing. If anyone...

Hi! Did you manage to get it amended? If so, how long did it take? Thanks! :D

Hi! I’m in a similar situation as you although the processing time now is 15 weeks. Did you manage to get it fixed? And how long did it take (did you say it was urgent on the envelope?)

Hi, Quick question: I didn't get the full 3-year validity of my PGWP because my passport expires before then. If I renew my passport in order to get the full 3 years, will my PGWP expire at the same time as the old passport? If so, can I continue working? Thanks!

I don't travel until October unfortunately :(. Please do let me know if you find anything out!

Hi! When I received my PGWP in the mail in Canada, I immediately booked a flight home. It wasn't until I was in my home country that I realized the country of birth on my PGWP was wrong. I am aware that I can submit an application to have the PGWP amended, however, the current processing time...

The current processing time for this is 26 weeks, and I will start work before that is finished. Do you know if they will be able to amend the PGWP at the airport (I'm currently outside of Canada travelling and hence can't call IRCC too). If you are unsure, thank you anyway! :)

Hi! Did you manage to correct the place of birth in your biometrics?

Hi, Did anyone apply for a study permit inside Canada recently and was approved? I applied on June 12 and haven’t received an update even though the processing time is 2 weeks currently. Thanks!
