Hi jubear,
Thank you for your help. I just contact my MP and will visit her this coming Monday :)

Fish0a0,

No worries. I'm glad you are going to meet your MP in person. Go with all your info and know your UCI and online application number that begins with a W. Hopefully you get all the help you need. Best of luck :)

Cheers!
 
I got PGWP in mail yesterday!!!

Jaison784
Applied: May 23rd (Full amount paid)
Blank Update: Aug 04
PGWP Approval: Sept 10th
Mail Delivery: Sep 17th
Total Processing Time: 110 days (From submission to approval)

Goodluck for everyone waiting approval
 
For everyone who has got their work permit. I wanted to ask if your pgwp validity begins on the day of your approval or the expiry of your study permit. If it is expiry date of study permit, we will be losing like a few months don't we?
 
Hi Jubear,

Please update my status:

Approval: 8th Sept

Mail Delivery: 14th Sept.

I sincerely appreciate your time and efforts in keeping this forum up.

God bless you.

Good luck to all applicants!
 
First of, i would like to thank Jubear for his immense help. Without him, i would have never gone for flagpoling.

I didn't apply online because after seeing all the replies here, i thought 100 days would be too much for me.

I arrived at the rainbow bridge at 9 am. Walked over the bridge to US customs and they gave me that white paper after 10 minutes of waiting. Walked back to Canadian customs. Talked with the Canadian custom officer and told him that i am here to convert my study permit to work permit and he gave that yellow paper to me and then sent me to the immigration counter. Went over to the counter and asked him about what documents he specifically needs and he asked for University's official letter, transcript and original letter of acceptance. Asked me to wait for 15 minutes. Paid my $255 fee and then he gave me the PGWP for 3 years. I made sure that my employer location is any and all the details are correct and then came out smiling. Total time taken ~ 45 minutes

I advise anyone who has a valid TRV, study permit and is within 90 days of University's confirmation letter to go for this route.
