Did you get the same request? Yeah required by October 4 for me as well. My spouse applied for her SOWP and she got the same request. Yeah, strange because we both are in Canada.
Post Graduate Work Permit Processing Time (PGWP)
- Thread starter A_Smile
- Start date
Hey guys! I took a look and I got exactly the same request but they never sent a message telling me that I had to submit these documents. It also says October 4 in the required by column. According to the submittion instructions it says the following:
Did we request an additional document from you?
If we requested additional documentation to support your application, please upload, the document (s) requested. When the document is uploaded, select the "next" button to sign and submit the document(s). Once you've uploaded the document(s) requested, you will receive a confirmation message in your account.
If "overdue" appears in the status column, it means you have missed the deadline to upload the requested information. If you miss the deadline, you will not be able to submit the additional document(s) and a decision about your application will be made based on the information previously provided.
I'm guessing they did not request the documents but they are saying that if we want to submit those documents we have until October 4 to do so. They are not mandatory.
I haven't got any email for that but I can see that under submitted documents. It is strange indeed. Also, that form is under optional documents. In client information also I can see required by 4th October. I strongly believe it's an error. I'll wait for other's response before submitting that form.
Possible.
None of my friends provided that form and they all got their pgwp without any issue.
Regarding the 5257 required form issue, I asked my friend who applied on May 19 to check if he's also seeing it. When he checked the date was 5th Oct on his application. Same happened to my application as well. Now the date is changed to 5th oct from 4 oct. So I am sure that it's a technical issue from IRCC.

I guess processing time slowed down again all of my friends who applied in april or early may got their pgwp. It’s so hard to wait for long time

So this link was the one that finally convinced my employer that I am legally allowed to continue working even when my letter has expired. Thanks for sharing it, if you're ever around Hamilton, On, let me know to buy you a coffee or beer XD
