It happens, its more like a mistake from the officer so you cant plan to get that. In the form for pgwp there is a place to put how long the work permit you are applying for is, sometimes if you put 3 years even if you only deserve 1 they grant the full 3 years.

No, My wife is studying at that university. An alumni from her course told her. 3-4 people from the last batch got it.
So I was wondering what could possibly be the reason for it.

Sounds like a mistake by IRCC. Don't count on it happening again.

.

It’s like that rare time shopping when an expensive item gets swiped for an extremely inexpensive amount . Don’t set your budget on it , and count on it happening again , because more than likely it won’t
