Post Graduate Work Permit Processing Time (PGWP)
- Thread starter A_Smile
- Start date
There are two scenarios here:
1. You applied for Work Permit, SIN was valid when you started a job and after sometime SIN expired but you are allowed to work as per the rules and your SIN information was entered in the employer system for pay and all before SIN expiry.
2. You applied for Work Permit, waited for 2-3 months without a job and SIN expired before starting a job. In this case, the employer won't be able to enter your SIN information in the system for pays as this is directly linked to CRA which won't allow expired SIN in their system.
Oh, gocha. I thought you were in the first case and your employer terminated your employment.
Unfortunately, I'm the second case. My employer gave me 3 weeks' time to get the update SIN which would only happen if I get my work permit in 3 weeks from now. I called Service Canada & IRCC, explained my situation but they didn't care.
I applied last Jan 16 without biometrics. I havent recieved my approval yet.
Last Thursday my status changed from "The review of your eligiblity has not started yet" to "We are reviewing your eligibilty". I hope this is good news.
I have no idea whats going on. Im seeing people applying later than I did, also w/o biometrics, and they are getting their approvals.

according to what we've seen on this thread people applied in Jan/Feb are getting processed right now.
New updates
Buddies applied on End may and early june, without biometrics in Canada got approved from online today.
I guess they are processing files randomly.
