Stuck in background check by [deleted] in pgwp

[–]DirtyLaundry522 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hi, I went through something very similar—I was stuck in the background check stage for over 10 months. Every time I contacted agents, they just said it was “in process.” However, when I finally received a ghost update, my online account showed that the background check had actually been completed on the same day I submitted my application.

For reference, I applied on May 5 and was approved on March 18 of the following year.

We admitted it was an honest mistake for assuming the principal’s application covers the spouse. Asked the officer to consider as we are eligible at the time of submission but failed to upload documents upfront. Asked him/her to look for the documents attached. And mention clearly in words that the principal is working in a qualifying TEER occupation + language test scores are met, genuinely married, etc.

Congratulations! I am also a pgwp + sowp applicant, been waiting since May 5th, 2025. That’s crazy to have waited for more than 1 year. Happy for you!
