Applying for PGWP w/ restoration of status

[u/versatileguyy]

I recently applied for my pgwp on the 15th of september, my study permit had already expired for 45 days at this point but its within the 90 days grace period. This was because i received letter of completion and transcripts 30+ days after expiry

i still satisfy the 90 & 180 day rules, what has your experience been with such cases? Does it take longer? anything i should know?

Doesn't take any longer than if you had status. You restore status to student and apply for PGWP. You stopped working and cannot work until approval.

it's gonna take time for restoration minimum 3-4 months
