seeing you guys get accepted within 70 80 90 days is really great. my application its been 95 days now.
hit the 3 month mark on sept 11th.. still nothing. i applied for PGWP + status restoration fee (my study permit expired 11 days before my letter of completion of my studies came out)
really want this work permit to come out, i cannot work so i am having a really hard time renting a place, i am getting kicked out of my only home here now because my roommate is moving in his brother instead of me and he was the one that brought me here, i have no idea how i will find a new place without an occupation/stable income listed, and i cant work until i get my work permit approved... this rule really sucks, i was supposed to be working this whole past 3 months but my girlfriend has been helping me out with finances, i just feel so defeated right now. its a good thing forums like this exist to give me hope because otherwise i would have been really hopeless. no friends or family, stuck at home for 3 months then getting kicked out... broke my new pixel 7 pro within 3 months of getting it and then i was using my iphone 6 and i broke that too. not even a smartphone to help me get by. a bit of a massive rant but it just sucks life is a bit tough right now and i literally have nowhere else to vent but here. hopefully by leaving this here i can post in the future about getting approved and whoever was (Hopefully no one ever) in my situation will have some hope
sorry for the drama
Update: I was just informed by my older brother back home that my father in Jordan had a stroke and lost control of his left side of his body. I feel that it is very important that I might have to leave Canada to visit my family back home to support them during this difficult time. I am currently in Canada waiting on a decision to be made on my PGWP and status restoration application.
I will need a Temporary Resident Visa I assume, to re-enter Canada.
I applied for PGWP June 11th, 2023 alongside status restoration as my study permit expired on May 30th, 2023 along with my previous TRV, and I have not been working since.
Can I apply for a new TRV to re-enter Canada before a decision has been made on my work permit? I applied on June 11th, 2023 and raised a webform with my renewed passport on September 9th for my PGWP.
I would really appreciate assistance during this time, and I thank you for taking the time to read if you made it all the way here.
Due to my deteriorating mental state, I was also wondering if someone could shed some light on where I can start with mental health support. I live in BC and currently on an expired status (paid and waiting for a decision to be made on my PGWP + status restoration).
