How long did it take for you to receive a physical copy?Does the document status show up on your GCKEY though? If it does, you should be able to see when you were approved and the PGWP expiry date.
The In Canada Approval Letter seems random, some receive, some don't. Give it a couple more days.
FWIW, I've received the Approval Letter in GCKEY, two days after approval.
Congratulations. I was debating doing this when I applied Feb 4th inland from Canada. I had to go to India but I decided not to risk it since some people ended up waiting 6-7 months outland. Would have also been due to Covid which had impacted.Hi,
this reply is for TRV (outland) timeline after receiving your PGWP (inland). if you're only waiting for PGWP, you may ignore this.
I am just going to share my timeline since I have seen quite a few queries about TRV processing time after receiving your PGWP inland and like most of you, I couldn't find answers on that.
Context: I applied for my PGWP from ON but I travelled home to India while my PGWP was still being processed and my TRV had expired with my student permit. So to travel back to canada I had to apply for TRV again.
- I received my PGWP approval letter on 25th Jan 2022 inland ON
- I waited for the physical copy for applying for my TRV outland (though I have read at multiple plces that you can apply with just the approval letter also. However, I did not want to risk it.)
- I applied for my TRV online from India on Feb 10th after my relatives sent me a scanned copy of my PGWP that they received in Ontario
- They started processing my background check on Feb 11th 2022
- On Feb 17th 2022 I received my passport request
Hope this helps or just gives you an estimate of wait times! Though every application is unique and your case may take longer or less time than mine, this is just my experience. Good luck!

Couple of days, not including weekendsHi,
Does anyone know how long it takes for us to receive a physical copy of the permit in Quebec?
@sidhuripudaman applied on Feb 2nd and status reads the sameAnyone who also applied TRV (inland) after getting PGWP? Today I found "We are reviewing whether you meet the eligibility requirements" status. Does it also mean the application will be approved soon, similar to PGWP case? I applied on Feb. 2. Seems fast. But I am not sure how long it can still take before getting passport request.
