Great episide, I am an ISA at an Atlantic Canadian DLI, and we always discourage students from "flagpoling". I loved how you started with, "I have a friend" 100% that is always how the conversation starts! I just shared your video with our students.
P
Mark and Alicia are spot on based on my recent experience. Avoid if at all possible. I had a horrible experience.
Thank you for sharing 😊👍🏻
Great episode Mark and Alicia!!!
I have an amazing idea for you. Why not applying the pinoy pride for real and going back there? Be independent for real

This is so valuable
Hello Mark,
Can I flagpole to remove conditions noted on my (Open) PGWP
"Not authorized to work in childcare, Primary school"?
Or can I remove same at the airport after an international flight?
Hi Mark and Alicia,
Thanks for sharing these information, this is my case;
I'm in a private college for a one year program and have 3 three months to graduate. I have gotten a job offer and would like to find out if it's good advisable to flagpole to change my study permit to work permit.
This is because the private college is not eligible for PGWP upon programme completion even though it's a DLI accredited. I want to gain working experience in canada. Do i qualify, please?
I need help.
HI, My study permit is going to expire on April 30th. I have already applied for an extension along with my wife's SOWP extension on January 27th. It's been around 3 months, and I am still waiting for an update on the extension. My course was completed a week ago, and I am waiting for the final grades. I have a question: If I can somehow arrange the course completion letter and transcript from my university before April 30th, can I apply alone for a PGWP with my existing study permit since I have already applied for an extension? Will it affect my spouse's existing SOWP extension application? Thank you for your assistance.
Same situation, did u apply for pgwp, alone or with spouse ?
Can we apply pgwp without valid study permit?
@@mohammedroshank2003hello any updates? Similar situation for me
Helloo.. What did you do??
@@mohammedroshank2003 if you do, then you should start working until a decision is made on your PGWP application.
Impressive
