Post Graduate Work Permit Processing Time (PGWP)

[Game94]

Hi,
I just completed my studies and am waiting to get my transcripts and completion letter. In the meantime we are allowed to work 20 hours a week right? But recently due to COVID-19 Canadian government has allowed students to work more than 20 hours if they are working in the essentials. Is it also applicable for students who have just recently graduated.?

Did you get any info on your biometrics validity yet? If you didn't I wouldn't be worried.

You didn't answer the question! Your 89 days count from the date of your biometrics submission if you didn't have biometrics before application!

 

[Basssnhardeep]

I did biometric on 7 feb .. right now i did not get any mail from cic regarding biometric experiy

 

[kloppity]

So no email from CIC about biometrics validity?

You shouldn't worry yet until people who applied/submitted their biometrics on that date start receiving updates.

In simple terms, assume your application was submitted on February 7th.

You should be fine. The success rate for PGWP is probably the highest of all TRVs.
