They will reply after several weeks and tell you to apply for replacement of permit via post. That too takes months to get processed.

Is there anybody who applied on 21 January and no response yet?My son has applied on 21st January.
I applied on the 26th, no response. I contacted my local member of parliament, and they contacted the IRCC and informed me that they "received the application and they don't need additional files". I suggest your son also reach out to an MP. This has been proved by many people in this forum to be helpful. Hope this helps

Hi! Silent reader here. I just wanna share our timeline since we expect that ours will take more months.

Applied for Study Permit Extension + OWP— January 26, 2022
No update at all even the review of our eligibility.
Graduated- May 27, 2022

Applied PGWP+OWP EXT- June 18, 2022
Approved - Today (July 25, 2022) they just updated our profile, no more review of eligibility.

The extension for my OWP got canceled while mine was still stated as submitted.
We waited for our extension for 180 days but we got our PGWP+OWP permit for 37 days without the WP-EXT letter.

Good luck to everyone! I hope you all get yours too!
