I am in Canada and we applied in October 2020. From the GCMS notes we realized that they asked our address to confirm that we didn't need to redo our medicals but apparently they may ask that for other reasons. I applied in October 2020 so.... we were waiting a loooong time. We didn't write...

After one week of the address request we got the PR confirmation email to fill the information to access the portal. Very happy and excited!!

I don't know why they are asking this specific information because it was declared on the application and, in our case, we haven't move since we applied. It was at least a relief to see some movement in our application. Now, regarding your problem proving your kids address, I wouldn't worry...

My son is also a minor and I uploaded his transcripts, those had his address. We didn't submit our IDs but we used power and internet bills that are under our name. I suppose that even a lease that discloses the people leaven with you will suffice as well.

My husband got the same request yesterday. The letter instruct us to look the tab in the documents section but we couldn't find it however, my husband opened the application on a incognito window (he is a web developer so he explained something about why that tab may not appear always depending...

Same here, applied October 13 2020, medicals are expired since October 19th and nothing has happened since, not even the medicals extension. Getting desperate, to be honest. Our permits expire at the end of this month and January so we needed to pay for new permits but even that is taking forever.

Hello, Cancel the application, if they haven't done any progress with that application, you have the chance that they may give you the money back.

My husband and I applied last year on October 13; he is the principal applicant. However, we had some problems with his criminal record; we managed to get it just until July 22, and so far, we haven't got any update since then. We ordered GCMS notes, and our timeline is this: AOR: October 13...

I finished my Ph.D. program in October, applied the 16 of that month and got my approval letter the 13 of this month. Still haven't received the work permit on mail though. Did you send an official transcript? I realized after applying that submitting a non-official transcript may delay my...

It is the first time that I heard this and in my experience and knowledge of other PhDs, I don’t think it is a rule. I applied in October 16 and got my approval the 14th of January. Friends and family needed to wait the time stated in the processing time or even less. My case is also special...

I just got my PGWP approved! applied Oct 16, 2019 approved January 14, 2020 that is 91 days of processing. BTW I also got my son's student permit approval. Good luck to everyone!

From what I understand, if you apply within Canada, you need to apply for a TRV separately after you receive your PGWP. I have seen in other treats here that the TRV just takes a couple of weeks if you are a PGWP holder. I am not sure about PGWP from outside Canada.

Nothing yet, however, I applied the 16th. I'll post my timeline once I get any update.

But you can start working without the actual PGWP, usually, you just need to provide a copy of the PGWP submission letter and maybe if they are not aware of the regulations you can point them to the CIC web page.

Got the passport request letter yesterday! You can't imagine how relieved I am. Thanks for your comments.

Thanks a lot!

Yes, we were living together for almost two years, we even filed taxes together this year. The first application was inside Canada however, I stated that my son was in Colombia. The second application was in Colombia. I understand that finances are one of the biggest issues this is why is so...

Hi, thanks for your response. I am worried because I am not sure if they will allow my son to come back to Canada with me. You are right, if I am planning to apply for a PGWP my absence will not affect it, however, I am worried that my son's status is causing me a lot of headaches. Respecting...

Yes, I am in the final stages of writing my thesis so, my supervisor is ok with me being here. However my common in law status is going to “expire” soon.

Hello there: I would like to hear some input on my situation. I am an international student and single mom. I started my PhD five years ago but because my funding wasn’t big enough It wasn’t possible for me to travel with my son. After a year in my PhD I managed to get extra funding which, was...
