Cov19 Impact on PGWP application

[sylarnos]

Hi all,

I am about to graduate in April. Just checked the news, says CIC is suspending basically all visas until the middle of May. I wonder that am I still allowed to submit my application? Because once I received a job offer, I know I am eligible to work so long as the application is submitted.

Btw, I am now within Canada and will be staying here while applying.

Thanks,

International students in Canada, take note: courses of study being delivered online on an exceptional basis due to #COVID19 will not affect Post-Graduation Work Permit Program eligibility for a post-graduation work permit.

Try checking the IRCC website. Visas have NOT been suspended and even if they were, that has nothing to do with status applications within Canada.

Sorry you get my question wrong. My question was not about online studies. I know I am eligible with PGWP.

Just for clarity where on these sites do you see the official visa statement ?

Nothing has been suspended so far, dont read fake news. Only read official gov websites and cbc.ca
