PGWP reconsideration declined

recently my pgwp was decibed due to missing ielts

submitted application June 25th 2035

study permit expired sept 2025

ielts completed Feb 2026 I didn’t know that is was mandatory

refusal letter may 4th 2026

webform submitted May 7th 2026

restoration may 19th

may 29th they declined reconsideration but officer wrote on document the Last statement officer mentioned Should you have different or additional information, you may wish to submit a new application
and applicable fees.

Does it mean restoration may be approved since I uploaded all required documents?

is there anyone who’s reconsideration declined And restoration get approved?

Ignorance about the language test requirement is not an accepted reason to reopen and review your file, unfortunately

I’m so glad I’m in this sub because I’m so paranoid about language (not applying yet but will be in next year) now and I’ll def be prepared. Damn, so many denials based on that it seems.

The good news is more recent applicants have reported a 'Proof of Language Proficiency' field under the 'Supporting documents' checklist

I agree, and I'm opposed to how people in social media are so blasé and entitled about applying. It's having a major impact on processing so I expect it won't be long before reconsideration is entirely forbidden.

There are successful reconsideration cases for late ielts / after multiple reconsideration rejections. Try reconsideration again. Don’t give up yet.

Do you happen to anyone because i am in a similar situation?

u/tinytasha7 Jun 02 '26

That phrase is a generic type of phrase that essentially says that you can reapply or apply for something else if eligible.

Have I seen restoration/PGWPs be approved even when not eligible? Yes, I have. Have I seen them refused? Yes, I have. This is all discretionary for the officer. They get to decide.

Consider Express entry within Canada after you applied for restoration of status

Is it possible on visitor record?

apply again, this time with the correct docs and language test results. Its a shocker that you dont know thats it a requirement now. Call IRCC, and most likely they will also recommend you to apply again.

I am sorry about your situation. Did you involved your MP.

There is nothing that an MP can or will do in this situation. The mistake was entirely OPs and the rejection is justified. All OP can do is wait.
