Hi Everyone, I was following this thread up to around early October last year and there was a spreadsheet that people were entering their application dates onto which was really helpful. Is it still available?

I don’t think it is. I was following it too and then it just disappeared and the link was invalid. I don’t think I have it anymore either

Hi All,

Need some clarifications. I applied for PGWP in mid April and received bio-metrics email the very next day. Since all the Service Canada offices are temporarily closed due to COVID-19 situation, I cannot book an appointment for bio-metrics.

My Questions are:
1. Can we request IRCC to skip the bio-metrics process because of COVID-19 situation as they introduced this process in Dec 2019?
2. If not, what are the alternatives if any?

My study permit will expire on May 15 and i guess i'll be on 'Implied status' afterwards. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks

I just wanted to ask again since no one answered my specific question on the study permit reply thread. I applied for my PGWP on implied status, since then I got my study permit approved till June 12th. Once my study permit expires, if my PGWP application hasn't yet been approved I will not have to leave right?

Hi If you applied for PGWP on implied status ,and you did not paid the restoration fee along with other fee , probably IRCC will return your application because of incomplete application . Then you need to reapply along with valid study permit .

Hey man, stop passing this information as it is actually false. As long as you have implied status, you can apply for a PGWP no problem, although you won't be eligible to work while you wait for the PGWP.

Again, you DONT need to pay for restoration of status since you didn't lose any status.
