PGWP Refused? Your Case May Still Be Reviewed

If your Post-Graduate Work Permit (PGWP) was refused by IRCC, it may still be possible to request a review of the decision in certain situations.

Many refusals happen because of missing language test results, misunderstood documents, or incorrect officer assessments.

Send us your refusal letter and we can review whether a Reconsideration Request may be appropriate for your case.

PGWP Refused Due to Missing Language Test?

Recently many international students are receiving PGWP refusals because:

  • Language test results were missing
  • IELTS / CELPIP was not uploaded properly
  • Documents were misunderstood during assessment
  • Program completion or study status was misinterpreted

In some situations, a Reconsideration Request may allow IRCC to review the decision again without submitting a completely new application.

Every case is different, which is why reviewing the refusal letter carefully is important before deciding the next step.

What Is a Reconsideration Request?

A Reconsideration Request is a formal written submission asking IRCC to review a refused application when there may have been an error, misunderstanding, or missing information in the original decision.

It allows the officer to re-examine the application without starting the entire process again.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

A Reconsideration Request is a formal request asking IRCC to review a refused application again when the decision appears unreasonable, incorrect, or based on misunderstood facts or missing information.
No. A reconsideration request does not involve submitting a new application. Instead, it asks IRCC to reassess the same application based on errors or unfair assessment made by the officer.
No. IRCC is not legally required to reconsider every case. However, when a request is well-reasoned, professional, and supported by strong evidence, officers may choose to reopen and reassess the decision.
A reconsideration request should be submitted as soon as possible after refusal, ideally within a few weeks. Delays can reduce the chances of success.

Reconsideration requests may be appropriate for:

  • Visitor visa refusals
  • Study permit refusals
  • Work permit refusals
  • Spousal and family sponsorship refusals
  • Temporary resident visa refusals under administrative or assessment errors

Each case must be carefully reviewed to determine eligibility.

Generally, reconsideration focuses on existing evidence, but clarifications or explanations may be provided if they directly address the officer’s misunderstanding.
