Hey, I really need help!

My husband and I got refused of PGWP extension. We only had it for a year. They say that he needs a LMIA which can take a while. We can not afford to stop working!

We are in the process for applying for PR our english test date is in March!

What options do we have?

Hi Team,
I have applied for my work permit on Aug 31 (105 days) and not received any update yet. I came to india for a short vacation and I cam stuck here. I am really concerned as I have a offer to join on Jan 2021.:rolleyes:
Can you please tell me is there any ways to expedite it? Anyone have IRCC contact number I can call from India.
Any advise?

Thanks

Did you apply for the PGWP from inside Canada? Do you have a valid TRV till the time you want to return?

There is no known way to expedite a PGWP application. And you cannot call IRCC from outside Canada.

PGWP cant be extended, there aren't any quick options that let you work.
