I applied for my Post-Graduation Work Permit (PGWP) through Earnest Immigration around May 15, 2025, and I received my work permit on March 23, 2026. I truly appreciate the level of care and thoroughness they put into my application. The entire process was handled with great attention to detail, patience, and professionalism. Nidhi, in particular, was incredibly supportive throughout this journey. Due to the ongoing delays with PGWP processing, I found myself feeling stressed and anxious multiple times. However, every time I reached out to them, they took the time to patiently address my concerns and reassure me. After every call, I felt much calmer and more confident that everything had been done correctly and that the delay was simply part of the normal process. Eventually, I received my work permit for the full three years, and I am beyond grateful for the hard work and dedication they showed. Additionally, my partner’s spousal open work permit application was also handled by Earnest Immigration. Since we applied under a common-law relationship, we were initially quite skeptical about the outcome. We were even prepared for a long wait, possibly until May 2027. However, thanks to their expertise and efforts, the application was processed much sooner than expected, and my partner also received the work permit, which by the way had very less chances of being approved! We are both extremely grateful for their guidance, patience, and consistent support throughout. A special shoutout to Deepanjali and Amy (Aman) as well, who patiently addressed every single concern I had. I asked countless questions throughout the process, and they always answered each one thoroughly and in the best way possible. I keep recommending Earnest Immigration to all my friends and will continue to do so for any immigration-related needs or concerns. Thank you, Team Earnest!
I contacted Earnest Immigration for a business startup inquiry and relocation to Canada. I had quite a few questions and wasn’t sure about the process at first, but they explained everything clearly during my first consultation and helped me understand the right path forward. Thanks to Piyush and Amy for being patient and supportive throughout. I’d definitely recommend them to anyone looking for honest and reliable guidance.

During such an important and difficult time, Earnest Immigration gave me the guidance and support I needed throughout the immigration process. I especially want to acknowledge Fatima for her effort, patience, and professionalism. She was supportive, responsive, and understanding throughout my case, and I truly appreciated how seriously and carefully she handled everything. Having someone like her guide me during such a stressful period made a real difference. I am very grateful that I received a positive outcome on my Work Permit reconsideration. For anyone in Windsor looking for reliable and professional immigration help, especially for reconsideration for PGWP matters, I would strongly recommend Earnest Immigration. Thank you again to the whole team, and a special thank you to Fatima for all her help.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does the process take?
Timelines vary based on the type of application and your country of residence. Generally, the LMIA process takes about 8 to 16 weeks, depending on the complexity of the case and employer compliance. Once the LMIA is approved, the work permit application typically takes 6 to 12 weeks to process. However, actual processing times may vary based on IRCC workload and country-specific factors.
Can I work in Canada without an LMIA?
Yes, if you qualify under LMIA-exempt categories (e.g., intra-company transfers, certain international agreements, or spouses of eligible workers). We can guide you through these exemptions.
What happens if my application is refused?
If your application is refused, we thoroughly review the refusal letter to understand the reasons. Based on this analysis, we provide expert guidance on addressing the issues, strengthening your application, and reapplying with improved documentation. If reapplication is not the best option, we explore alternative pathways to help you achieve your goal of working in Canada.
Can my family accompany me to Canada?
Yes, in many cases. Spouses and dependents may apply for open work permits, study permits, or visitor visas based on your status.
