My friend has a question; he just applied for the Post graduation work permit, He went to college for a two years diploma and everything looks perfect. The problem is that immigration just answer and instead of giving him a three year work permit they gave him less than one year. We just want to know why this happen, did he do something wrong or he just have to apply again.
Thank you.

When does his passport expire? They probably only sent him the PGWP for the remainder of the time left on his passport. Once he gets a new passport, he can apply for an extension to get the remaining time available to him.
