Hi all, when applying for a PGWP, do we have to provide a copy of the current study permit? I have submitted my application last week but did not include a copy of the study permit. Will that affect my application? Thanks!

It's not one of the required documents, so you're fine. They'll have your UCI number if they want to look it up.

No need to worry, be relaxed. I know its easy to say and difficult to implement as my situation was exactly the same just couple of days before. The processing is gonna take its sweet time. Some of my friends got approval in just 15-20 days while some are waiting who applied in December and January. So, it all varies from person to person. And hopefully, you will get it soon. I hope this helps.

Yes, its super frustrating (as you should know) I have a full time job and my permit expires soon, so my concern is that I will lose the job if I dont receive the final decision in time.
