Hey kubeir,thanks for the grt elaboration,Just wanted to ask the can i apply for the BOWP if i get the ITA while on visitor record status. Thanks in advance
Hi Kubeir, I was considering applying for a PGWP - WP extension; however I wanted to clarify 2 things: 1) Can one apply for an extension the same day as the PGWP is going to expire? 2) Based on IRCC’s website for the WP extension application, there is a letter that is sent to the applicant as follows: “ You’ll get a letter (WP-EXT except PGWP) that proves you can keep working under the same conditions as your current work permit”. Can you clarify what the “WP-EXT except PGWP” implies for a Post Graduate Work Permit holder and Work Permit extension?
I wonder the same question. My PGWP is expiring very soon and I am looking for ways. On the IRCC website it says “the IMM 5988 - WP-EXT only except PGWP letter is sent”. As Kubeir didn’t reply your question while replying others, I have a big doubt about this video.
Kubeir should answer pgwp extension without getting invitation letter. Because the form don’t allow to continue without invitation letter. If he don’t clarify this he is just misleading people!
Thank you for covering this. It really eases the situations atleast to some extent for us! I was advised by an imm lawyer to apply for BOWP and submit the AOR immediately once received assuming some draws will happen before the 120 days processing time. Not sure how this is gonna work :-(
@@AskKubeir Thank you Kubeir! But the thing here is, the lawyer told me to apply for BOWP and attach the aor later if I get an ITA and AOR before it is processed.
@@AskKubeir In the case , when I am currently on my 1 year PGWP and falling short of a month or two to complete the required full 1 year experience can what can be done in this case ?
@Vignesh, I believe that this is the best way to do it because when you apply for for the extension you get a receipt that say “WP-Extensio Excep PGWP”. This is not stated on the BOWP receipt.
Hey Kubeir thanks for this insightful video...But how do you apply for a PGWP extension in the first place without being disqualified by the questionaire? is it just that i'd have to apply for another PGWP ? is that how you do the fake extension?
Hello Sir, Thanks for making this video. Q1: if they reject the extension, the work done under that implied status can be used to claim for CEC application and is there any chance they will reject the application and give removal order or its common that they would provide 90 days time to restore the status. Q2: Under which criteria we can extend the work permit because it needs a job offer with LMIA or some other criteria like applied for PR or any recent public policy and so on. Pls suggest 🙏
1. Work under implied status is legal and accepted as per law. Restoration of status is a right and hence you have 90 days to restore your status. 2. Please check cic website for details on application to extend your work permit.
@@AskKubeir is there way to apply for work permit extension without LMIA? i went to apply for extension it is asking me if i have LMIA or no and when i did no it did not let me proceed further
Thanks for the amazing info Kubeir. My sister has got 1 year PGWP as she is enrolled for 1 year study. She is currently working for an employer since she got her work permit. Her working permit is going to expire in next 5 months. She want to extend her work permit so that she can apply for CEC or some other draws while staying in Canada. So what is the best time to apply for extension and how long she can work on implied status if the extension got rejected and how about last year’s policy for 18 months WP extension. Is is still applicable or available for PGWP extension. Hope to year from you soon.
Hello, I am currently working in Canada on a valid work permit through internal company transfer. Kindly suggest: 1. Can I get 50 points of job offer also, for the same company, when I apply through CEC after completing my one year. 2. Also, please let me know if I need to get two reference letters from my company separately, one for India and one for Canada, or a single one with both Indian and Canadian experience details can serve the purpose. Thanks
I think this is a misleading information. Because when requesting pgwp extension it will ask “if you received pgwp extension email?” Unless you select yes you can’t continue. Can you clearly tell us the way to continue?
Hi kubeir, I am one of the CEC applicant with CRS 468 and my post graduate work permit is going to expire in july 2023... am really very confused about my PR and my work permit extension, kindly help me with ur valuable advice. I really really appreciate ur feedback. Thanks
Hi Kubeir, the video is very informative and thank you very much for taking time for creating such wonderful content. Kubeir, as you have said, there are many people who are very anxious about the next cec draw and I am one of them. I have a question regarding PCC and I look forward to your reply. @Ask Kubeir, my PCC expires in the last week of Feb and if at all there is a CEC draw before this month's end or in first/second weeks of February, would it be a problem if my PCC expires after successfully sending the PR application documents through the next draw? I read on the IRCC website that at the time of sending the application, the status of PCC should be active, not expired and be obtained within the 6 months. Please clarify on this and thank you.
@Santosh Sharma I remember reading it somewhere on their website and I find it logical . Why should you make new pcc if you didn’t go back to that country ?
Can someone please explain how can we even apply for a work permit extension because if you do it online who have to answer a questionnaire and according to your answers they will tell what you can apply for..
Hi Kubier sir, thanks for your informative video. So basically, you wanted to say that we need to submit “ BOWP “ because when we fill all the questions there are two questions that are about AOR and Submitted PR file, that we need to answer as “yes”. If we submit this “Extension” without AOR, then once we receive ITA and submit all documents, so do we need to submit fresh BOWP or we can raise a web form to inform them that we received AOR with attachments.
Thanks for sharing the information. My pgwp expires on March 20th and I will have to apply for extension cuz I'm running 10 days short for my 1 year experience. Will the work I have done after my pgwp expire counts knowing that the extension will be rejected? Cuz the AOR literally mentions WP-EXT except PGWP. Sorry if answered before.
Hi, how are you? Very glad that I read your comment. I’m on same situation as you were. I’m running 15 days short for my 1 year experience. Can you please tell me what you did? I would really appreciate it!
Hi sir, thank you for this video. I was an international student and my 1 yr pgwp expired in June 2021. However, due to the public policy, I have given an 18mos extension which will expire on November this year. Im running short on CEC work experience. Can I still extend my already extended permit given by the government last time to stay here in Canada? If yes, when is the best time to apply for extension? Kindly enlighten me as I really don't know what to do now. Thank you and all the best.
Im on this situation! My question is, if I continue working on implied status as you said. Will it affect the decision of IRCC when I finally apply to my PR? I mean, if they consider this as a wrong move from my side.
Thankyou for the wonderful video Kubeir Kamal sir. I've a small question, My PGWP is expiring on 15 May, 2023 and I have already received an iTA on 30 Sept. Can I apply for PGWP extension or BOWP? I reside in Quebec, Am I still eligible for BOWP ?
Do you think there is any chance the IRCC might do another 18 month extension scheme as they did in 2021? I would have applied for this but was completely unaware of it
@@AskKubeir that's a shame, I wish I had known about the PGWP extension at the time as another 18 months would have given me some breathing room, guess I will just have to hope CEC draws resume asap
I am CEC inland AOR june 29th. Medical passed aug 9th and after that no updates. More than 6 mo after AOR and still waiting. Called IRCC and they said eligibility is under process… “are you kidding me?”
Hello sir, in my situation, i have applied MPNP on 7th December 2021 and yet no update on my MPNP, my PGWP will expire on next month 23rd may 2022, i am also in express entry pool. So can you please guid me how can i extend my work-permit without LMIA. Can i extend my work-permit based on MPNP applied status.? Please sir help me 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻. MPNP processing time is 6 month and it has been 4 month. And i only have one month.
Hi Kubeir, I am a CEC applicant, all stages passed as on 9th of dec.’ When called the ircc they say that our file is sent to distribution . Don’t know what is this. Can u pls explain this
Hi Kubeir, really liked your video and the way you quoting directly from IRCC website. It's quite helpful to me. I have two questions about PGWP extension, can we can apply for it only once when the decision was made? I mean if we got rejected from the IRCC, which we knew it would be, Can we still reapply for it many times to stay as maintained status? Second questions is the fee, I looked up the link you put, there is normal PGWP fee $255, and another one is Restoration $605, to this kind of situation, we should choose the one for restoration, right?
In order to be in implied status your current status needs to be valid. Hence if you get a refusal, you can not re-apply for a work permit just to continue being on implied status. You would then need to stop working, restore/change your status to a visitor or international student if you enrol in another program
Hi, Thank you for the updates. Q1. If the PGWP extension decision is made as rejected before I receive an ITA should this be specified in the application that I submit for CEC later. Q2. Can we apply for other documents like background verification from India or Medical exam results before getting an ITA. Thanks in advance.
are the rumors true that last year pgwp expires were allowed to extend because those people experienced covid-19 and were not able to get PR in time... this time also people can claim and request to IRCC that CEC draws are not happening at a regular interval and there are of course irregular cut off scores coming out irrespective of great Frech Lang. Programs and PNPs
Can you please make a video on the process of extending work permit because work permit was given only for the validity of the passport. For example, 3 years are usually given after completing 2 years of course but since the passport expires in a year, only 1 year PGWP is given.
Hello and thanks in advance, I have a question I am going to apply for CEC and as you know the minimum requirements for the language test is celpip 5 if NOC B or Celpip 7 If the NOC is A Now my question is if some one his work experience in canada Under NOC B and his score L: 8 , R:5 , S:7 ,W:8 So he is eligible , but my question if his foreign experience Under Noc A is this will affect the foreign experience points Like the foreign experience will not be acceptable?
Good day I have a question regarding open work permit.Can you tell me how much time does it take or say taking these days to get open work permit ?I have applied for it in December. (I have come to Canada on dependent visa )
Hi. Recently did this. My pgwp is about to expire and i applied for a pgwp extension online and received a letter indicating 3mos extension on maintained status. However, on the subject of the letter that was sent to me, it says work permit extension except pgwp but it is not stated on the actual letter. What’s your insight on this? I just dont want to complicate things.
If I am in the Express Entry pool (CEC) but my CRS is below the cutoff, I wont get an Invitation to Apply for PR. But am I still in the EE (CEC) pool? If so, in such circumstances, if my Post Graduate Work Permit is Expiring, Can I apply for a Bridging Open Work Permit? Or only People with Invitation to Apply for PR with CRS score above the cutoff can apply for Bridging Open Work Permit? Please explain brother. Very Important for me.
Hey Kubeir I want to ask a question on behalf of my friend. My friend's wife didn't get full PGWP because her passport will be expiring next year. So my friend also got his work permit for same duration as her. She will apply for work permit with new passport. Can they apply together for extension? or what's your suggestion? Also his wife has NOC B level job.

Hi Kubeir , thank you for the insightful video and suggestion . My question is when we say maintained or implied status and that it’s legal to keep doing what we were doing on the previous status till a decision is given, does it apply when we go for a visitor visa from an expiring PGWP as well?

However, My work permit was issued to the validity of the passport aka. April 2023 (around (2.4 years) and not the full validity of three years.

Must renew for further extensions." I have read differing comments so just want to ask so that I have a better understanding. Thanks for you help.

@@ytlover1420 Can you please confirm? I am a bit confused, thank you
@Santosh Sharma
I remember reading it somewhere on their website and I find it logical . Why should you make new pcc if you didn’t go back to that country ?
Can someone please explain how can we even apply for a work permit extension because if you do it online who have to answer a questionnaire and according to your answers they will tell what you can apply for..
Hi did you find the info for renewal of work permit
did you get an answer for this?
Hi Kubier sir, thanks for your informative video. So basically, you wanted to say that we need to submit “ BOWP “ because when we fill all the questions there are two questions that are about AOR and Submitted PR file, that we need to answer as “yes”. If we submit this “Extension” without AOR, then once we receive ITA and submit all documents, so do we need to submit fresh BOWP or we can raise a web form to inform them that we received AOR with attachments.
What is AOR? and when do we get one?
What did you end up doing ? Webform or new application ?
Thanks for sharing the information. My pgwp expires on March 20th and I will have to apply for extension cuz I'm running 10 days short for my 1 year experience. Will the work I have done after my pgwp expire counts knowing that the extension will be rejected? Cuz the AOR literally mentions WP-EXT except PGWP. Sorry if answered before.
Hi, how are you? Very glad that I read your comment. I’m on same situation as you were. I’m running 15 days short for my 1 year experience. Can you please tell me what you did? I would really appreciate it!
Hi sir, thank you for this video. I was an international student and my 1 yr pgwp expired in June 2021. However, due to the public policy, I have given an 18mos extension which will expire on November this year. Im running short on CEC work experience. Can I still extend my already extended permit given by the government last time to stay here in Canada? If yes, when is the best time to apply for extension? Kindly enlighten me as I really don't know what to do now. Thank you and all the best.
Please watch the video and you may follow as discussed
How did you apply for extension for 18 months can you please let me know
Im on this situation!
My question is, if I continue working on implied status as you said. Will it affect the decision of IRCC when I finally apply to my PR? I mean, if they consider this as a wrong move from my side.
Following.....
nope, because it is legal to work on implied status
@@AskKubeir Can you clarify what the “WP-EXT except PGWP” after apply for the extension.
Are we able to apply for closed work permit if we have one year experience at the same occupation without LMIA?
Thankyou for the wonderful video Kubeir Kamal sir. I've a small question, My PGWP is expiring on 15 May, 2023 and I have already received an iTA on 30 Sept. Can I apply for PGWP extension or BOWP? I reside in Quebec, Am I still eligible for BOWP ?
Do you think there is any chance the IRCC might do another 18 month extension scheme as they did in 2021? I would have applied for this but was completely unaware of it
Highly unlikely
@@AskKubeir that's a shame, I wish I had known about the PGWP extension at the time as another 18 months would have given me some breathing room, guess I will just have to hope CEC draws resume asap
@@richhogg8074 Hi Rich, you might already be aware but there is an extension coming next month

A little over 6 months and you are freaking out, when 1000s are waiting for more than 2 years. Relax and have patience, it will be processed.

Hi Kubeir, I am a CEC applicant, all stages passed as on 9th of dec.’
When called the ircc they say that our file is sent to distribution .
Don’t know what is this.
Can u pls explain this
Hi Kubeir, really liked your video and the way you quoting directly from IRCC website. It's quite helpful to me. I have two questions about PGWP extension, can we can apply for it only once when the decision was made? I mean if we got rejected from the IRCC, which we knew it would be, Can we still reapply for it many times to stay as maintained status? Second questions is the fee, I looked up the link you put, there is normal PGWP fee $255, and another one is Restoration $605, to this kind of situation, we should choose the one for restoration, right?
In order to be in implied status your current status needs to be valid. Hence if you get a refusal, you can not re-apply for a work permit just to continue being on implied status. You would then need to stop working, restore/change your status to a visitor or international student if you enrol in another program
Hi,
Thank you for the updates.
Q1. If the PGWP extension decision is made as rejected before I receive an ITA should this be specified in the application that I submit for CEC later.
Q2. Can we apply for other documents like background verification from India or Medical exam results before getting an ITA.
Thanks in advance.
1. Yes
2. you can apply for PCC but wait to get your ITA and then complete your medicals
Hi sir how much for you charge for consultation in by phone or video ?
Www.askkubeir.com/appointment
are the rumors true that last year pgwp expires were allowed to extend because those people experienced covid-19 and were not able to get PR in time... this time also people can claim and request to IRCC that CEC draws are not happening at a regular interval and there are of course irregular cut off scores coming out irrespective of great Frech Lang. Programs and PNPs
Can you please make a video on the process of extending work permit because work permit was given only for the validity of the passport. For example, 3 years are usually given after completing 2 years of course but since the passport expires in a year, only 1 year PGWP is given.
its a simple application process, you can apply for an extension online

Hey Kubeir
I want to ask a question on behalf of my friend.
My friend's wife didn't get full PGWP because
her passport will be expiring next year. So my
friend also got his work permit for same
duration as her. She will apply for work permit
with new passport.
Can they apply together for extension?
or what's your suggestion?
Also his wife has NOC B level job.
Yes they can, provide employment documents and paystubs
Should i apply work permit extension before 30 days of its expiry? Within a week of expiry possible?
Hi Kubeir, it's now 2022 and I've watched your video just recently. Is extending PGWP still possible to do?

However, My work permit was issued to the validity of the passport aka. April 2023 (around (2.4 years) and not the full validity of three years.

Must renew for further extensions."
I have read differing comments so just want to ask so that I have a better understanding.
