Post-grad work permit

[waynnad]

Now that I have just graduated, I'm planning to apply for the Post-Graduation Work Permit which J heard could take as long as 4 months to process. However, my study permit expires in end of August. So, if the work permit application is still being processed by the time my study permit expires, what should I do? Can I still stay in Canada while waiting for the outcome of the application ?

Hi,

Now that I have just graduated, I'm planning to apply for the Post-Graduation Work Permit which J heard could take as long as 4 months to process. However, my study permit expires in end of August. So, if the work permit application is still being processed by the time my study permit expires, what should I do? Can I still stay in Canada while waiting for the outcome of the application ?

1. I bet you know the answer.
2. The processing time is 18 days for online PGWP application.

Where did it indicate that the processing time for online applications is 18 days? Any link to back this up?
