Hi all,

I applied a week ago to extend my pgwp to an open work permit under the public policy that states ircc will extend 18 months for current pgwp hodlers and my application was approved yesterday.

However, the length of the permit is only 12 months,expiring may 7 2022. Anyone has the same problem and what did you do? Please advise, thanks!

Did you submit the letter with your application mentioning that you are applying under the public policy?
I actually missed out on uploading that letter... a bit stressful that how it will impact my application!
