Hello everyone,
I hope you're all doing well. I'm currently facing a situation that's causing me a bit of concern, and I thought this forum might be a great place to seek advice and hear from others who might be in a similar boat.
A little background: I recently applied for a post-graduation work permit (PGWP) just a week after my study permit had expired. I understand that there might be certain challenges associated with this situation, and I'm looking for any guidance or insights from those who have experienced something similar.
I have a few questions that I'd greatly appreciate any input on:
- Has anyone here applied for a PGWP after their study permit had already expired?
- What were your experiences with the processing times and overall application process in this scenario?
- Were you able to continue staying in the country while waiting for the PGWP decision?
I've been checking my application status regularly, but I haven't received any updates yet. I'm also a bit worried about my status during this waiting period.
If anyone could share their experiences, advice, or resources that might be helpful in my situation, I would be incredibly grateful. I understand that each case might be unique, but hearing from others who have gone through something similar would give me a better understanding of what to expect.
Thank you so much for taking the time to read this. Any insights you can provide would mean a lot to me. Let's support each other through these challenging times.
