Hello, I hold a PGWP which states that I cannot work with children or in a health services field occupation. I was offered a role with Lifelabs as an administrative concierge. I would be involved in entry of patient data. Does anyone know if these restrictions limit clerical based jobs in a...

Thank you for the info! My friend is in a similar situation (PGWP, outside Canada), she has a job offer from an acquaintance who were looking for a family support worker. She has a social service worker certificate as well. Surprisingly, she was denied entry at the airport because the airline...

Hey, Also in the same boat, was denied entry at airport inspite of having required documents. In your case did you show payslips from previous job because that should technically qualify as " normally stays in Canada"?

Hi there, Could you explain your situation a little more? Were you denied entry at departure or after landing in Canada?

I have a open work permit PGWP and am currently outside the country. As per the travel requirements, a valid job offer and proof of living in Canada is required for re-entry. I have a rental agreement and bank statements that show that I was paying rent while away and other phone bill statements...

Hello, 850/- in Vancouver is comparatively much cheaper. Glad you could get that! What dates did you book for? I've heard that the cost is varying by days i.e weekend vs weekdays.

Hey Bavsh, At what point did you pay for the biometric fee? Was it asked for while paying the TRV application fee or after at the VFS? Thanks again for your help!

This is so strange, I haven't gotten it either. Don't lose hope, 6 weeks will be up by the 2/3rd week of December and it will surely come this time. CIC said they reprint would be delivered in 4 days.

I called CIC today and they basically told me the same thing. They said if it still did not show up in 6 weeks (19 Dec in my case), they would the resend the permit. I had my fight booked for next week and at this rate I don't think I'll make it. Keep me posted in case you get yours.

Hey guys, I got my PGWP approved on Nov 8 and still haven't received my physical work permit by mail. Anyone else experiencing delays this long? Is there a way I can track where the permit is?

Hey RoRoy, My PGWP was approved on NOV 9 too and I still haven't received the physical copy. Any update on your PGWP?

That makes sense, I don't plan on staying for straight 6 months. This probably varies depending on what state you apply from, but was it hard getting a biometric appointment/where was your passport shipped to for stamping?

Thank you so much for your reply! Did you have to do submit any other additional documents like proof of funds (other than the question on funds in the IMM5257) or medical reports? This whole process has been daunting, I really appreciate your help!

Hey Bavsh, Any update on your TRV application yet? I just got my PGWP approved and am thinking of applying for my TRV from India.

How long did it take to get your physical copy in the mail?

Got my PGWP approved. Timeline: Applied: June 29 Eligibility Review: Oct 19 Approved: Nov 7 Work permit length: 3 Years No notification on email. For those of you that got the PGWP approved, how long was it before you got the approval letter in CIC account? Also, how long does it take to be...

Did you end up submitting your transcript or letter of completion or both?

Based on other peoples timelines on this forum, I think you should have your stamped passport back in a week and a half at most.

For applications made within Canada, no biometrics are needed. And based on other peoples timelines on this forum, seems like it takes about a week and a few days to be delivered back.

Congrats the wait is finally over! Did you happen to submit your transcript and letter of completion or just one of them?
