Hi, I did apply on Aug 29 too. I did not get any update so far. Did you get any update on your application ?
Post Graduate Work Permit Processing Time (PGWP)
- Thread starter A_Smile
- Start date
What circumstance can delay PGWP processing?
Hi All
I applied on Aug 29, after my 4 years PhD. I did submit all required documents; official transcripts, program completion letter and others. I have seen in this forum, people applied in September got response from CIC. I am concerned now.
I have been following with CIC since 2nd week of Dec, I raised 3 web forms and called 3 times. When I called, officer said that the normal processing times not applicable to my application, but not mentioning why ?. Officer says I should wait as long as it takes. I am wondering what could be reasons for delay in processing my application.
appreciate any insights to this problem.
Thank you

which country are you from. Some countries require additional visas and trv which may take more time. Those countries that are visa waiver receive their work permit faster.
You may also have uploaded difficult to read documents or your documents are difficult to verify.
there was also a 2 week boxing week break during christmas and new year, so it might also be delayed due to less people working on applications
I applied in Aug.23 , PhD. very similar as you. My case was transferred to Edmonton CPC in Dec. 2.
If you have any update informing me I would be appreciate.
Sure, I am following up with CIC.
Did you ask for transfer to Edmonton CPC ?, Where was it originally assigned ?. They are not even telling expected time for processing. Do not understand why special treatment to PhDs. Please let me know if you get any update on your case.
No. I submitted on-line at first and it was automatically transferred.
One of the agent said it can take 9 months and another said she has no idea.
