[Walecott]

Double question so how long it took to get PPR after eligibility review started for the approved applicants?

You dont get a PPR when you apply for PGWP in Canada.

Question for those already approved - how many days do you wait to get a physical copy of the permit? I'm in GTA area

From what I have heard from other people it could be 1 - 3 weeks.

Applied on June 6th. PGWP EXT only valid till Oct 4th and SIN till 30 Sep. I'm afraid what to say to my employer about working on "expired" SIN

You can continue working with an expired SIN.

Did anyone approved recently get their hard copy of PGWP. I need to know how many days it took for you. TIA.

So I logged into my IRCC account to check any status updates on my PGWP. On the first page where your applications are listed, the one for the PGWP said something like "updated application". I instantly clicked on it, but then on the application's main page there was nothing. I went back and now it just says submitted. Is this what some call "ghost update"?

I didn't receive any emails from IRCC, just went to check as I read that some have gotten approval without an email notification.

Read the status. If it says they are reviewing your eligibility it means that eligibility review has started.
Initially it says we'll let you know when we start reviewing your eligibility but when they start reviewing it changes to we are reviewing your eligibility.

No emails for these messages. Even you won't get an email for approval. You'll get an email when you get the approval letter which is usually next day after approval message.

I think you're right. It says:

"We are reviewing whether you meet the eligibility requirements."

I guess that's good news. Thanks.

BTW, application submitted on May 18th.

I just received an email from IRCC that they updated my application status, I was expecting approval letter after this email, but there's nothing on my application. It's been 24 hours already. Which email do they send us for approval letter? TYIA.
