Ares91,

Its impossible to determine what will happen. Sometimes it all depends on what agent is processing your application. Hope for an oversight on the agent's part. Also do not sweat it too much and stay positive. Its a minor error.

Cheers!
thanks jubear, I hope it's not a big deal

Hi All/ Jubear , I need help. Today , I got a letter from CIC refusing my application for PGWP which I made on June 2nd .The reason given for the refusal was basically due to my passport issue. By the time I applied, my Passport was valid till September. Immediately I got a new passport in October I uploaded it even though CIC did not ask for it. But apparently it was a futile effort. My Temporary Resident Status also expired today and I have been asked to apply for restoration within 90 days. Now , what am I applying to restore? Should I apply for restoration of my Temporary Residence Visa and PGWP?

Hi all.
I applied PGWP June 6th and still haven't received it yet.I have already called CIC and talked to an agent 5 times so far.
They sent request to main office to work on my visa,and it's been 2 weeks since then....my status is still open.
I did many things that I can do ,and I sent e-mail to MP in my region.
I am almost burn out and tired of waiting visa which I don't know when it's coming....
Do i just have to be patient and wait till it approved?I feel I have already waited enough time .

I applied for PGWP on June 16 and it was approved on Nov 26 and delivered to me on Nov 30. I have my off-campus work permit and was fortunate enough to (eventually) find an employer who understands "implied status" thing.

I mailed paper application (IMM form, passport, copy of PGWP, photos) for TRV right after receiving PGWP and it was delivered to Ottawa office on Dec 2 . I'm a little freaked out for TRV now because I have friend's wedding to attend on Dec 26 and I have to leave Canada by Dec 24 due to the time zone difference. I guess this is not considered as urgent as those who have family emergencies, but she's been my closest friend since we were literally 7 or 8, so I can't imagine if I have to miss her most important life event :(

Another friend who applied for PGWP in early July got hers in mid Nov (a week before me), though we are graduating from a same university, submitted the same type of materials...So I really don't know if CIC is respecting the submission time frame that much. Best of luck for those who haven't got it yet!

Hi,somebody should please advise on my case above.Since CIC specifically mentioned fees for restoration of status and other " immigration document (s)", can i go ahead and just apply for 1.Restoration of study permit. 2.Restoration of status and 3.PGWP?

I have no idea because I sent paper application instead of online application, so there is no way for me to track the application status.

I see.. that's annoying. It has the same processing time approximately.
