Hi,

I just applied for a PGWP and on one of the documents it asks for my current occupation.
Accidently I put my previous occupation in this box as I read the question wrong.
However, upon realising this mistake I sent in a webform with the correct and ammended documentation.

Do you think this will be an issue? I sent them about 4 hours apart.
So not expecting a response anytime soon.

Any thoughts would be appreciated,
Thanks.

Callum

To add to this, I spoke to IRCC over the phone and they informed me that the webform takes about ten business days to be added to my file. Once ten days have passed it should've been added to my file and the officer will see that it has been added.

Should be fine, you sent in the corrected mistake, no biggie.
Current processing time is 10-15 days for PGWP, lemme know how it goes.

Thanks for the advice! PGWP is 38 days as of this morning and the webform is about 10 days or so.
Oh that was not the official processing time, I know some applicants that have been approved in 10 days in April, May.

Okay so I just got a notice in my portal that they are giving me an extension to work in Canada until 7th September 2021 or until a decision is made on my application. Not sure what this is about, but it must be due to Covid-19.

Just an authorization to work full time.
