PGWP Applied inland Ontario : January 07 2022
Approval : February 24 2022 (3-year PGWP)

Absolutely zero updates in between. My partner who applied on October 27 2021, so 2 months before me is still waiting for his update so they obviously have no clear order.

So there are less applicants in Nov/December or what? In Sep/Oct there were lots of updates on PGWP approvals but things seems to be drying up.

Hey guys, I just wanted to write about my case just to give hope to future graduates who finds themselves in a similar situation.
Study permit expired: April 09th (stoped work since I was out of status)
TRV expired: September 04th
Received email confirming completion of course : May 03rd (my official transcript, letter of completion and parchments were on hold because I still owed tuition from last semester which my Dad took long to pay due to some uncontrollable COVID 19 related issue)
Applied for my countries passport: June 11th
Got my passport: August 17th (seemed like forever and it was due to some communication issue and COVID)
Received confirmation of graduation and official transcript: September 17th
Applied inland (QC): October 20th (I sent a LOE explaining my situation, talking about my achievement while I pursued my degree and future plans if I got approved), (No help from any consultant or lawyer or international office staff from my school)
Eligibility review: February 23rd
Approved: February 24th (3 years)
These past year has been full of stress, I was seeing lots of ignored application and I was starting to get in my head as my case was very complicated. God bless the angel who reviewed it! Congratulations to everyone who received good news and I wish luck to all of you who are still in the process especially those who find themselves in a study permit restoration situation. I’m sending prayers and positive energy your way <3

Congarz!! thanks for sharing

I had applied in mid-December. Got an update about '... reviewing eligibility ..' on 17 Jan, then changed back to 'Your application is in progress ...' after an hour.

Just a thought:
Because of what's going on in Ukraine and the fact that IRCC would be prioritising open WP applications for Ukrainian passport holders, I have a feeling that out processing time might be affected by a few days.

Hey, Congratulations.

I just had a question for you. I did my medical for my PGWP and I applied on January 15th 2022. When, I was doing my medical there were I think one or two tests which were not done. They were I think vaccination proof or something like that which we would get in childhood. But did you submit anything like that with the medical or not? Because, I did not and I am just scared that they might reject my visa because of that. When I was applying, I did state that I work with younger children. What did you select when you applied?

Hey, I submitted my proof of the covid-19 vaccination to the immigration doctor because he said sometimes they request it however I didn’t have to provide any proof of the vaccinations received as a child although I had all my documents for proof.
