Post Graduate Work Permit Processing Time (PGWP)

[Cynthia93]

So far as you are in still in full student status is valid, you can add some courses online.
It is better you take the failed course online, you wouldn't have an issue doing the course online

Thanks

Hello all friends,

I had this conversation before:

'' My study permit will expire on Feb15,2019 ( my Wife's work permit as well) and we both are working. I am graduating in December (next month) and going to apply for PGWP by Jan10, 2019 and extension of my wife's WP, as I can meet the conditions for her WP extension. So, what if I won't receive the WPs by the expiry date of our documents ( Feb15)? Can we work after that date until we receive our WPs or we have to stop working?!''

The answer I received from a nice fiend here in this group:
'' Can work until decision made. Better to update SIN after expired.''

I have another question if someone can kindly answer it I would appreciate:

... can I update my SIN number when I haven't received my study permit, yet, at that time? ... Because, I wouldn't have any specific status in Canada during the time when I'm waiting for my PGWP! right!??

1. Yes you can work until decision is made on your work permit if you have applied for work permit.
2. No, you cannot update SIN if you do not have valid Permit either Study or Work.

You and your wife can continue working full time once you have applied within 90 days from graduation date.
However, your SIN Number can be changed once your status has changed from Student only

To save on time I gave them everything, official transcripts, Diploma, completion letter and in my case a supporting document to show why I took longer to complete the final semester.
