@@ImCanada Hello Max, Good job with the video....i got a question for you, I'm currently applying for a PGWP and I already have my wife here on an open work permit valid till September 30th which is my study permits expiry date, so can i apply for her work permit extension as well along with my PGWP, or do i need to be already employed for that?
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.
Hello, if I submitted an Express Entry profile and it already expired prior to coming and studying to Canada, should I answer 'Yes' on the "If you have a previous PR application" question? Thank you
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?
I have applied for a study permit in the ircc portal .... Now I'm going to graduate ... So I don't have GC key .. is it possible to create pgwp application in GC key now ?
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
Hello , tomorrow Dec 21, 2024 we will have our final grades posted. However, I will receive my Letter of Completion on January 15, 2024. When should I stop working?
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.
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 ?
So if I did a postgraduate certificate program in business and want to do another program in Health which is ontario college certificate I can't get 3 years work permit?
Hi Max! Thank you very much for your video! I just wanted to ask you about form IMM5707 Section B not being able to be dated. I was asked to fill this form and I've done it, but everytime I date section B, the date disappears when I re-open the form. Is it okay to send the form in like that? I wrote this issue down in my letter of explanation too. I hope you can please answer this question, thank you very much!
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.
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.
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!😊
HI there i Watch your full video that was really awesome and detailed covering every point 👍👍. But my biometrics and UCI is not updated on the portal. can you please guide me bout this thing, however, my friends get it updated right after the submission.
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 😊
I did a 2 year MBA program in 1 year by taking extra courses every semester, I accelerated it. In the completion letter they mentioned I finished 2 year course in 11 months. Should I mention it in the letter of explanation? I’m hoping to get 3 year pgwp
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 ?
I recently submitted application for PGWP but I found out I tick the wrong reason on the form which I need to correct? I have selected Applying work permit with same employer which is wrong. What will be the process to correct it? Thanks for your answer.
Do I need the transcript AND the official conclusion letter to apply or only one of them? I received the final transcript but not the conclusion letter. Do I need to stop working today or only when I receive the letter?
Hi, one thing I did not understand was: if I am applying for PGWP in May 2024, and my spouse has been working on an Open Work permit for more than 1 year during the time I studied, under the new rules, can my spouse still apply for an extension of her Open Work Permit after I receive my PGWP? The video seems to indicate that she cannot anymore.
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 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.
My spouse is still outside Canada. Can I add her Open work permit application to this PGWP application? Or does she need to continue a different application that is not joined with my PGWP application?
how long does it takes to get applied status? I have applied already through your guided video but it reflects a message in separate pdf of upload passport copy with electronic submission(though I have submitted) what should be done
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.
Hi, I subscribed to the AI Tools and already paid $14,99 per month. However, sometimes I can access the tools, and sometimes it asked me to pay again. Could you check out the bug please?
Hi can I submit a confirmation letter saying that I have book an appointment to do my medical when submitting my PGWP ? Is it possible to post the medical afterwards?
@@ImCanada I won’t be able to book an appointment quick enough because the physicians aren’t available. However I got a confirmation letter saying that the appointment is booked showing the date.

Study permit expiration July 31, 2024. Applied for an extension on May 9, 2024 as my program runs until mid-Aug 2024. However, I haven’t received a decision on my extension app. Can I still apply for PGWP? If so, can I also work while waiting for a decision on my PGWP app?
Hi, I am considering taking the same 1year program after the program I am currently in, 1+1 but two same programs, because I don’t want to learn too many different things, only focus on the field I am currently studying. will that be difficult to explain in the application process to get three years work permit in the future?
A friend of mine submitted under the letter of completion space his certificate of completion, so he sent his letter of completion along side a letter a explanation through the enquiry webform (replacement of document, amendment document) space. Will this affect his application?
My required supporting document lists the IMM5707. I don't have any family who are Canadian or that I am applying with/for. Is this still required or have I selected something wrong?
Hi Max, I applied for my PGWP yesterday, but I accidentally uploaded the Parchment document instead of my Completion letter. What should I do now? Thank you!

Hello Max, great content as always. I was wondering. I applied for my study visa before January 22, 2024, so my wife also got her work visa and permit. I'll be doing a 2 year Post Bachelor’s Diploma program. Do you think she will also be able to get an extension on her work permit when I apply for my PGWP?

Hi, I really find your videos super informative and in depth. Can I please make a request to you to make a video where you elaborate a little on how international students can go about their application when they want to pursue an aviation diploma/certification for flight school. As in Commercial Pilot Certificate commonly known as commercial pilot license. And if BC is a good choice right now to apply? Thanking you in advance. 🙏🏽 please keep up the amazing work. 🎉
Don't you think you are contradicting your statements. On the one hand, you are saying that students must stop working as soon as they recieve completion letter. This is not mentioned on the IRCCwebsite. On the other, you are saying that students can apply for the work permit within 180 days of the completion of study. If it is written on the IRCC website then please post a link with exact information on the IRCC website.
Hi, I don't have a GCKey account. I used the new portal to secure my study permit. Do I have to create a separate GCKey account for the application of my PGWP? Thanks in anticipation.
Hello Sir, I have some questions that my spouse passport is only 2 years validation, but he supposed to get 3 years! PGWP, we currently do not have time to renew passport. If I applied PGWP now, Can I extend my PGWP later?, after I renew the new passport?

Hi, for pgwp intended to work in health fields , can we use our previous medical since IRCC has a policy which enables us to use medical done within 5 years and if applied within Canada .thanks
Can you help me : After my first course was completed on April 21, 2024, my initial plan was to take up another program for the September 2023 intake. During my scheduled break, I intended to work full-time and then convert to part-time hours (20 hours per week) as agreed upon by my employer. With this understanding, I secured my letter of acceptance from Conestoga College for the second program, paid the first semester fees, received the completion letter for my first program and the official transcripts, applied for my study permit extension, and, in the meantime, worked full-time from May 27, 2024, until my next program started on September 3, 2024, after which I planned to switch to part-time work, 20 hours per week. However, due to some personal reasons, I have decided not to pursue another program at Conestoga College and have finally decided to apply for a PGWP so that I can work full-time and return to my home country after my work permit expires. If I apply for PGWP, do you see any problems of study permit violations? this is my plan stop work on a specified date, then withdraw my study permit etension application & program & then appply for PGWP. after that continue my work ?

Don't you think you are contradicting your statements.
On the one hand, you are saying that students must stop working as soon as they recieve completion letter. This is not mentioned on the IRCCwebsite.
On the other, you are saying that students can apply for the work permit within 180 days of the completion of study.
If it is written on the IRCC website then please post a link with exact information on the IRCC website.

Can you help me :
After my first course was completed on April 21, 2024, my initial plan was to take up another program for the September 2023 intake. During my scheduled break, I intended to work full-time and then convert to part-time hours (20 hours per week) as agreed upon by my employer.
With this understanding, I secured my letter of acceptance from Conestoga College for the second program, paid the first semester fees, received the completion letter for my first program and the official transcripts, applied for my study permit extension, and, in the meantime, worked full-time from May 27, 2024, until my next program started on September 3, 2024, after which I planned to switch to part-time work, 20 hours per week.
However, due to some personal reasons, I have decided not to pursue another program at Conestoga College and have finally decided to apply for a PGWP so that I can work full-time and return to my home country after my work permit expires.
If I apply for PGWP, do you see any problems of study permit violations?
this is my plan
stop work on a specified date, then withdraw my study permit etension application & program & then appply for PGWP. after that continue my work ?
