One last thing do I want to apply my travel visa along with the hard copy of pgwp or my approval email will work because hard copy going to come at my kitchener's address.
Please let me know

You can go to India without any stress and apply for TRV from there once your PGWP gets approved, in the questionnaire select your location as Canada for "Where are you applying from?" Biometric would be useful, you don't have to give it again. It's your wish to ask your friend to mail your hard copy to India or else they could just open the document and send you the scanned copy. Keep your PGWP acknowledgement and receipt handy while returning.

Apply as a worker category and location as Canada, you can use the same account you used for applying your PGWP, start a new application and answer the questionnaire as I suggested!

Hey guys. I have my PGWP. But I don't have a job yet and I need to apply for TRV from India. Do I need to have a job in order to get TRV from outside Canada? Plus with the current travel restrictions is it possible to get a TRV from India?

Hi

I was in the same situation and I applied as a visitor and attached all my supporting documents explaining my situation as my study visa got expired in India because of COVID. I called IRCC and was guided by them to do so.

I have applied for the TRV and got it approved in 8 days. Just try this with "country of residence" as Canada and purpose as "work" in the questionnaire. In the form IMM5257, we could mention the country of residence as India in question 7 and 9. Go ahead! They will request the biometric via a letter which is okay as it would be valid for 10 years.
Hey Bavesh, hoping you could still answer! In this case, your PGWP must have your old passport number written on it? Did you have to get your PGWP re-issued with your new passport number on it? Or is that not an issue?

Hi Bavsh,
I have an open work permit which was extended while I was in Canada. I have returned to India now, but I would like to apply for TRV. Is it fine if I choose my current residence as Canada ?
I have seen in other posts that people are applying for Visitor Visa. But since I already have valid open work permit, so I am confused.
I am looking forward for your reply.
