GOT PGWP Yesterday After this Situation, Did Flagpole at Lacolle/Champlain and it took 2 hrs and got my permit for 3 Years.

Overview - 2 part-time terms and 180 break in the study due to covid.

PGWP Approved After Flagpole

Hello, I am currently studying at UBC

Two Lab courses, one in fall 2020 and the other in 2021. Due to covid, both labs moved in the winter of 2021.

My current profile is
Fall 2020 - full-time (online mode in India)
Winter 2021 - Withdraw due to Late Visa stamping, deadline to attend university not possible (still in India)
Summer 2021 - Co-op Internship Not Possible (still in India)

Fall 2021 - Partime - Readmission (part-time due to missing lab course). Labs are prerequisites for a summer internship.
Winter 2022 - Fulltime
Summer 2022 - Fulltime
Fall 2022 - Partime (The last term is part-time as per the course structure.)

I had my PGWP approved today, unfortunately its a 1 Year PGWP instead of 3 Year, even though I am perfectly eligible for the 3 year.

I had completed a 16 month masters program (MBA) without any scheduled breaks over 4 semesters. Can anyone advise what I need to do ? How do I get IRCC to reconsider my application once it is already approved.

Applied : Jan 14th 2023
Approved : March 27th 2023

Edit: Hello Guys, Sorry for missing the introduction. My name is Huu Hoang Chinh, I heard that this thread contains useful information and help regarding the PGWP processing time.

I applied for PGWP on June 13, 2022. But there has not been any change regarding the process on my application displayed on IRCC. Is there anyway to know what is the problem with the process? I have contacted the IRCC before but there has been nothing much.
