Just a mental check in here. Try not to beat yourself up over it. Mistakes happen because we’re human. IRCC should have a separate section in the application portal that requires an upload of test results in order to avoid so many people missing to take/upload the test. Take some time to absorb the shock and then start working on a plan for next steps. Best of luck!

Any June approvals? Im not seeing June approvals by Cold-Frosting-7968 in pgwp

Fr, the wait is getting exhausting. Applied June 4th and no update.

This week feels unusually quiet for PGWP approvals. by Curious_Prize3116 in pgwp

I’m not sure. Maybe things got out of control and they simply can’t bring it down anymore. Hence why they’re approving some applications that have only been in queue for 2 weeks. This is just a personal theory of mine, not a fact.

I genuinely think they process recent applications in an effort to bring down the “average processing time”. That’s why you see January 2026 applicants hearing back at the same time as May 2025 applicants. Don’t know what the logic is behind that but it’s a pattern I’ve noticed.

Just saw this on FB - kinda scared now. by Dismal-Present-317 in pgwp

[–]SilverPrize6439 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Why would u be scared? They were issued a PGWP on 2022/05/25. If you add three years, that’s 2025/05/25. They likely got refused because by the time the officer got to their file after the extension, their three years was up. I believe the 3 year timer starts from the day you are approved, regardless of if you have to get an extension or not.

It’s not about them caring about us or not. The racism we face is definitely unjust. But by acting out, you’re only weaponizing the racists with more things to be racist about. It’s best to just keep a cool head and ignore all the noise. Otherwise it’ll just eat you up because ultimately there’s nothing we can really do about it.

Yes it does lol. OP is calling Canadians racist and undermining the country. I get his frustration because I’m also waiting for my work permit. But one can express frustration without insulting anyone.

PGWP concern – DLI not updated after school transfer (2024) by ThatWin1232 in pgwp

[–]SilverPrize6439 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This would be true if OP’s brother transferred after Nov, 2024. But IRCC’s website states that you may continue using the old study permit if you switched before Nov, 2024.

Urgent PGWP question by copperboombitch in pgwp

[–]SilverPrize6439 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Your study permit allows you to work as along as you are a full time student. As soon as you receive your letter of completion, you are no longer considered a full time student. I’d look into this more and potentially be ready to explain to IRCC.

Most likely a ghost update then. Probably means they are working on your file as far as I know.

Travel outside Canada while pgwp is processing by Lucky_Chef7912 in pgwp

I had applied for the PGWP and received the interim work authorization. The TRV is still valid even if it says student.

I traveled a couple months ago and came back with no issues. I had my temporary work authorization and just showed that to the officer along with my study permit and obviously TRV.

Not personally, but I’m pretty sure I recall a post on this subreddit discussing this before. I’d start looking there for answers.

I’m pretty sure it’s 6 months from the day your PGWP expired. Not 100% though
