Hey,

Is your TRV on your passport still valid? also is it less than 180 days since you graduated? if so you may try. But since it is almost a 5 month gap after you applied for your PGWP, flagpoling could be a tad bit riskier.
My TRV is expired. its more than 180 days now. What is your suggestion..?

Hi again everyone,

Finally they approved our application. I applied pgwp, My wife OPW and visitor record for our son. They gave us 3 years WP It was long journey From 16th November to 29th of March but finally happy ending.
After graduation I didnt find full time work, before Applied I have only offer letter. We put the application form. My wife has a job and we added her emploeyment letter too. They accepted. I hope that everyone can get WP as soon as possible. It was hard time for all of us. Stay safe

Hi All. I just received update for my PGWP application. It is approved.
Application date - December 3rd 2021

So any idea when will I get the work permit? It just says approved in the portal.
You should get it in a week's time.

Hey I applied my PGWP on Jan 21,2022 but IRCC shows my application is still under process. I looked at IRCC processing times and it shows they are processing files between Sep 17- 25. Anyone got their PGWP who applied in January?
