Application Submitted: May 29, 2020
Got approved: December 16, 2020

I applied with two dependents under my application and we got approval all at the same time. That is more than 6 months of waiting and to be honest it gave me a lot of anxiety. I also followed up with IRCC loads of times, but to no avail. They kept on telling me to wait, and I did just that, eventually it turned out fine. For those of you still waiting, just be patient. If you know for yourself that you have completed your program on time, abided by the rules, and have legal documents, then you have nothing to worry about. Stay safe!

Hi! You might get it anytime soon. An agent from IRCC told me that sometimes it takes them too long to verify something from your documents. But if everything is legal and you followed the rules, you have nothing to worry about. Try to contact them again for a follow up, with mine, I did it every other week. :)

I applied for PGWP online on Monday, Dec 14th. It has been 3 days now and I haven't received the Acknowledgement of Receipt :( I only have the application number, the payment receipt, and the confirmation of online application transmission. Does anyone experience the same issue?
