I would like to know if anyone has recently applied for an extension and are there any consequences for doing so based on recent immigration changes. Thanks.

Unless your passport expiry lead to receiving only part of the PGWP then no you can’t extend a PGWP. If you are asking about an extension with no grounds Technically you can but expect it to be denied and you may get a month or two extra. Haven’t seen any consequences but doesn’t mean there won’t be any. Unless there is a good reason to try to extend your work permit like imminent PR or to hit a Canadian work experience timeframe you need to evaluate why you are attempting to be able to work a month or two more.

Hi anyone applied for PGWP extension, wanted to know how long does it take to get the letter.
I applied on Thursday and haven't received anything. Thanks

There is no letter necessary, just show the IRCC link to your employer if they question. It will probably take a while before you receive rejection, but be prepared to pack stuff up quick when it does happen, as the denial might come with a removal order. Enjoy
