Post Graduate Work Permit Processing Time (PGWP)

[goi]

Ghost update usually reflects that your eligibility review has started.

I hope so, but my status did not change it keeps showing "Your application is in progress. We will send you a message when we start reviewing your eligibility" instead of "We are reviewing whether you meet the eligibility requirements".
I have a job offer to start in Mid-October I hope to get the permit before that. It's been 91 days already.

Hi All, As I have received my PGWP approval but my kids study permit has expired

Based on my SIN Number (assigned on study permit), I work remotely for Canadian Company.

My question:
Is it possible that I do not enter Canada and apply dependent visa after receiving 3 months’ Salary slips based on work permit approval. But without my actual Work Permit which is supposed to issue at the border.

Our basic intention is to travel together once everyone got visa.

I wouldn’t worry if I were you. If they were going to refuse your application they would have done it by now. They are just very very slow. I’m sure you’ll get a positive result.

July 20th here. My case is unauthorized work(unknowingly) before PGWP application and I have sent a LOE via webform. Feels bad man.

Many many many students make that mistake. You will be ok, I think. You were honest about your mistake. Has your elegibility review started?

Did you apply inland?

Any approval for those applied in early July?
I applied on July 8th and no updates so far. The wait time is very anxiety-provoking.

Thanks for the encouraging words. I expect to have my application considered in 3-4 weeks based on what I've read here. Best of luck to you.

Hey guys, just to massage our anxiety, here are some data from this thread (just some of the past pages) that I collected. Sure that it is nothing official and the amount of data may not be representative, but I was just playing around with the most recent data we have in this thread.

Applied on June and got approved: 14 users
Average: 86 days (Min 77 days, Max 96 days)

Applied on July and got approved: 03 users
Average: 61 days (Min 57 days, Max 67 days)

Also, from these data (17 users), it is more likely we receive a result on Monday and we are less likely to receive a return on Wednesday (besides Sunday).

Weekday of approval:
Sunday: 00.00 %
Monday: 50.00 %
Tuesday: 11.11 %
Wednesday: 05.56 %
Thursday: 11.11 %
Friday: 11.11 %
Saturday: 11.11 %

You must have shit tons of free time on your hands to do this lol
