Applying for PGWP at border

[k_k_1689]

I applied for PGWP on 2nd of Nov and my Study permit and Visa expired on 6th of Nov. Now, can I go to the border to talk to an officer and ask him to process it? Has anybody done this before? I actually have a job offer and want to get a work permit before 17th Dec.

Already answered in other thread that given you already have an application in process and also your study permit has expired already you cannot flagpole now, will just need to wait. Note that you are on implied status anyway until a decision is made on your PGWP so you can work anyway until that decision.

No - you can't. Your study permit and TRV are no longer valid. Flagpoling is not possible. You have to wait for the PGWP application to be processed.

My study permit expires on July 31st and my husband's work permit expires on same day. Can I go to border to get my work permit and then appyl my husband's work permit. Or I can apply my and my husband's work permit together under the same file?

According to the latest information on November 15, 2019, graduates should not apply for a PGWP to the Canada Border Services Agency at a port of entry. Please see at http://yorkinternational.yorku.ca/2019/11/important-information-from-ircc-about-your-study-permit/.
