PGWP Extention due to passport expiry

[titanik]

Hello,

I had 2 years of PGWP with a note that I was issued 2 years due to my passport expiry. So I renewed my passport and now I am going to proceed with extending my PGWP. On the IRCC portal, I believe it considers me as a new applicant rather than one extending the work permit because the total fee seems $255(Work Permit $155 + Open Work Permit Holder Fee $100). As far as I know, the regular extension fee is just $155. Did I select the wrong selection? I'd appreciate it if anyone who went through the same process could comment on this.

Thanks!

You need to pay 255$ for extension due to passport expiry as well as you will need to apply it on paper and send it through post.

I applied it online already. Would it be a problem? @immigrateINDCA

IRCC strongly suggests to apply it on Paper, but I have also seen online application getting approvals. Cant really say though if it would be a problem
