Post Graduate Work Permit Processing Time (PGWP)

[TanKin]

I found this out after repeatedly messaging IRCC web form. Didn't get any correspondence about it though like MacWartt did.

I've been waiting a little over 4 months now and nothing has been done since, it's even more frustrating when you see people stating they applied after you and have already been approved.

The last agent I spoke to on IRCC phone said they haven't even started applications from my time, yet I see people who applied around when I did got approvals in late January.

It was a correspondence letter (My CIC account notification) informing me that my application has been transferred. Don't worry if you haven't received such notification. Hang in there buddy, I know how anxious it can be to wait for a result.

Thank you, I havent gotten any information since applying other than the confirmation. My concern is that I have a job and my continuity is depending on my approval, I've been waiting a little over 4 months now and nothing has been done since. I amde sure to apply early so if any information requested i would still have time but now im getting worried.

That's what they state but the phone operations are'nt as informed and can'tfully provide information on application status. The IRCC recording also states that they havent started applications if you applied after Dec, yet even people who applied last month (May) states they have been approved.

For people who need to give biometrics, is your application status "your action is required"? Just want to make sure that refers to the biometrics on my application.

Hi there:

I applied for my PGWP and it automatically showing biomatrics enrollment date and expiry date and biomatrics number.

My question is I never gave biomatrics because I came in canada in 2018. My husband gave biomatrics in june 2019.

Is it by mistake or I really do not need to gave biomatrics? It showing enrollment as of 2019 june...

Eligibility Review: June 2nd
Approved: June 4th - 3 years

Hi all. I am struggling with renewing PGWP by mail. I need to renew my PGWP as my passport is renewed. For applications on paper, can you please let me know if a personal photo is required? What is its instruction? Thank you so much

Has anybody gotten their PGWP without having to give biometrics? Or is everyone's application at a standstill at this point?
