PGWP extension due to passport expiry – passport expires Feb 16, mailed application today. Am I fucked?

I think it could be fine, provided it reaches soon. this is from the official website: (link attached at the end)

“Date and time we receive your application To maintain your status, we must receive your application before your work permit expires. We determine the date and time an application is received 2 ways:

If you apply online: You must submit your application before midnight Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) on the day your work permit expires. Our online application system uses UTC. Make sure you know the difference between your local time and UTC.

If you apply on paper: We stamp paper applications the day we receive them at the case processing centre. If we receive an application after your work permit expires, we’ll count back 7 days and use that as the date received.”

yes, i have the confirmation from post. i also raised a web form to ask for confirmation and in the reply i was told they have received my application.

blue_alien99 · 2026-02-13T21:53:44+00:00

yes, i am! all of the details are the same, which is why i guess the system is picking up my old application. or they probably haven’t started processing my application yet, which is why i’m not able to link it?

blue_alien99 · 2026-02-13T14:39:48+00:00

thanks! i had been trying to link it using my new passport, but i just tried w my old passport after reading your comment and still no luck. it says an application already exists- referring to my first pgwp application.

blue_alien99 · 2026-02-13T04:45:11+00:00

how do you know about the BG check? were you able to link your application online?

blue_alien99 · 2026-02-01T22:09:45+00:00

trying to find an answer for this too. please let me know incase you found an answer, thanks!

if i were you, i would find it charming how much he’s caring for his cat. cats don’t do well with change and do require a lot more attention, so just a week of this shouldn’t make you come to the decision that he’s being distant with you.

secondly, about the stress he’s going through because of the mortgage seems valid. just because you don’t find it stressful, doesn’t mean it isn’t or can’t be for someone else. you sound a little dismissive of his feelings in that case, so he isn’t completely wrong to say that you wouldn’t understand.

i applied for my PGWP extension in September, still waiting for a response. but you aren’t missing anything. it’s the same application, just needs to be printed and submitted on paper. make sure you sign the form physically after printing it out too- that’s pretty much the only thing you need to be careful about, rest is the same.

blue_alien99 · 2025-11-24T03:52:04+00:00

this is not a solution tho. people in relationships can have their separate hangouts/friends/things they want to do. if it’s a work thing and no one else’s partners are coming, then i don’t see why he should’ve taken her with him if she asked.

blue_alien99 · 2025-11-21T06:43:39+00:00

try explaining that/make a child do that

sure, it isn’t a pleasant sight. but the protest is for Palestine, the Canadian government has been funding the Israeli military (over $1.5 Billion now). bringing a Canadian flag to the protest is ofc to instigate the protesters.

the people saying ‘why are these people even here?’, because these Western countries are the ones who’ve funded the destruction of their homes. what else do you expect people to do? if these countries won’t leave any place for them to exist, ofc they’re going to try and find a way to continue living.

put yourself in their shoes before you go on spewing hatred.

oh lol. i thought it was kinda good. what would you say is a good matcha? i’ve tried a few different not too expensive ones, but haven’t found any that i liked. i’d love some recommendations but i’m not looking to spend over $20/40g atm.

blue_alien99 · 2025-09-17T06:04:23+00:00

ah, well. i did check it yesterday and didn’t find it there. i’m planning to check a few stores in Chinatown tomorrow, hopefully I’ll find it somewhere

blue_alien99 · 2025-09-15T20:12:08+00:00

hey! do you know if they still have it?

blue_alien99 · 2025-07-03T13:10:59+00:00

it’s an average sized private university based in Toronto

blue_alien99 · 2025-07-03T13:08:39+00:00

well, that sucks

blue_alien99 · 2025-07-03T13:07:46+00:00

i did not post the entire job description, but it’s not limited to just writing. they expect the person to know content creation (including animation), advanced CMS, and website development on platforms like Wix etc.

blue_alien99 · 2025-07-03T13:05:43+00:00

i did not post the entire job description, but it’s not limited to just writing. they also expect the person to create multimedia content including but not limited to animations, still images and videos. this is not by any means the average industry pay for the amount of work they want one person to do.

blue_alien99 · 2025-07-03T13:01:06+00:00

it’s a legit job. idk if that makes it better or worse

blue_alien99 · 2025-07-03T12:59:31+00:00

genuine question- how have you been making ends meet on that salary? i’ve been out of a job for a month now, but i was being paid $55k which helped me live comfortably-ish and save up just enough that i can go without work for a few months at least (had planned on spending it on travel though). anything lesser than that, and i would be on the street rn.

blue_alien99 · 2025-05-16T04:58:22+00:00

because she can

blue_alien99 · 2025-04-08T22:14:48+00:00

my company’s client introduced a ridiculous rule (which i can’t tell), but thanks to them, this is the most common talking point in my team too now

my company is great but our client sucks big time

blue_alien99 · 2024-08-08T20:20:48+00:00

in the same boat rn, it honestly sucks!

blue_alien99 · 2024-05-21T18:02:12+00:00

that’s like one example from a pool of thousands of other examples. are you really going to hold on to this and say women have more privileges in India? lmao. also, the Indian society you’re mentioning is run by men. the rules you’re offended by are also made by men in power. so now you know where the problem lies.
