Thank you so much Max! You helped me a lot!

The purpose of PGWP is for you to find work experience related to the field you studied. Therefore requiring you to have a job offer prior to approval of PGWP is a scam.

My child just graduated from high school and used to have a student permit. Now she needs to apply for a work permit. Do I need to include her transcripts and letter of completion in my PGWP application, since her permit is linked to mine?

Hi Max, I need some guidance on how to correctly fill out the "EDUCATION" section of the IMM5710e form for students who have completed 1+1 programs. Should we list it as a combination of both programs in IMM5710e form? For example, should the "From Date" be the start date of the first program, and should we mention both fields and levels of study (like Project/Organization Management) and both schools (University College and ABC College) under one entry?

I'm asking because there have been instances where students who completed 1+1 programs were denied the 3-year PGWP. Any advice on how to avoid such issues would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for your help! It might help others who watches your helpful videos.

Hi Max, This is a great video, thank you for the detailed information! I have a question about my PGWP application. I selected "NO" for the question "Have you ever been refused visa or permit, denied entry to Canada?" However, my first study permit application was rejected, but I reapplied and was subsequently granted the study permit.

Will this discrepancy cause any issues with my PGWP application? Is there anything I need to do to rectify this? I'd really appreciate your advice on this matter. Thanks in advance!

thank you for your video. I have studied 2 semesters here in BC but will move DLI to Saskatchewan soon, during PGWP should I submit the unofficial transcripts from my BC university to proof I maintained my student status ?

[bhawani]

Hi, thank you for the detailed video on PGWP. Could you please tell me what additional documents I should attach if I'm applying for my spouse's OWP extension in the same app? Your response would be greatly appreciated.

[jonathancalderon]

Very well explained thx for sharing and posting right on, maybe could you mentioned what would be the process whether the applicant or student has spouse and kids. Have a lovely day!😊

[angieluciagodoytorres]

Awesome video! It helped me so much. I just have a question about how many hours are we allow to work while we are waiting for the official transcripts. Is it 40 hours or should I still follow the amount allow for students ?

[sylvesterkwofie]

Hi Max, thanks for the video. I couldnt recover my account because of change in device used during my application of a study permit last year. I had to create a new GC key for a new account. Following your steps i mistakenly filled the questions for the pgwp online now when i logged in my new account i was asked to provide personal reference code which was given when i completed the questionnaire online. The fee has increased to $255 because of an open work permit holder fee. What can I do to rectify this? Thank you

[lalitakatwe]

Gr8 video !! I have one question in do u have a written job offer? If we mention as yes, can provide with proof of employment ??

[resoundingprosperity]

Thank you for the video.A question.if am married, must I include my spouse in the PGWP application? Or just filling his name is ok? If I don't, does this affect putting his name for PR?
I don't want to include him for PGWP but will include him for PR.

[hetpatel]

Hi nice video, very informative, can you please tell how much time does it take to approve the PGWP?

[kapilrajbaral]

hi thank you so much for the guide. I accidentally submitted a black and white photo instead of colour and already applied. what should i do now

[blakelewis]

Hi! I recently submitted my PGWP application and I believe I’m in Maintained Status. However, my receipt does not have the part stating I can work under same conditions. So now I’m a bit confused if I can start job hunting. Can I just show my future employers the receipt? Your response is appreciated! Thanks 😊

[utkarshvyas]

Thank you for the guide. However, If I have applied for my PGWP and I wish to travel "Within Canada" say from Ontario to Vancouver, Can I do so? or I need to apply for TRV once I receive my PGWP?

Thanks in advance.

Does anyone know if the changes to SOWP apply if my partner finishes college at the end of the year? He enrolled in June 2023 and started early this year.
