Hi, I applied for the PGWP the 7th February and I have no news about it. Did some of you apply for it before that date and have not received it yet?

Thanks.

I applied 3 weeks before that date and didn't receive any news yet. I believe the proccesing centers will open in July and we will get positive news.

i applied last august and still nothing. I believe they are trying to meet the standard of "processing 80% of the application in a short time" and do not care the rest 20% and leave them in the dust.

People who submitted biometrics earlier seems to get PGWP in a few weeks. Others applications are in limbo.
Not applicable to all.

I applied on June 3 and I was the first among my friends who applied that day. I received my correspondence letter on June 12 as I did my biometrics during the study permit application. It's been more than a month I received the correspondence letter but no update after that. According to processing time, its 52 days and the processing time when I applied i.e. on June 3 was 89 days. Almost all of my friends who applied in June has got approval.

Maybe in your case, it was biometrics that delayed the process. My biometrics were done during Study Permit. I received the Correspondence letter confirming biometrics validity on 12 june
