Graduated from a 2-Year College Program in 5 Years and Still Obtained a PGWP|Client N

Client N, who graduated from a normally two-year college program in five years, was referred by a study abroad centre to Shiraishi VisaJP Canada and asked us to handle a Post-Graduation Work Permit (PGWP) application. Even while making an emergency return to Japan to care for a family member, the client received careful support and obtained the PGWP in about 5 weeks.
I got the PGWP I thought was impossible, so from now on I will make a fresh start and do my best!

Client Comments
Why did you decide to immigrate to Canada?
I have always been a slow starter. After getting a study permit in Canada, I spent two whole years at an English school before finally, just barely, going on to college.
College studies were hard, I also wanted to work part-time, and my parents in Japan did not complain about anything as long as I was studying in English, so I took things quite easy. I failed several courses, and there were times when I was having fun and did not go to school at all.
In 2019, I finally graduated from a two-year program after five years.
What made you choose Shiraishi VisaJP Canada?
With a record like mine, I thought a PGWP was impossible, but when I asked the study abroad centre that had arranged my college admission, just in case, they told me, “We are not confident we can do it, but you might want to contact Shiraishi VisaJP Canada.”
What was the most memorable part of the process?
Just then, my grandfather in Japan became ill, so I went back to Japan right after I had started talking with an immigration consultant at Shiraishi VisaJP Canada. At that point I had not yet received my graduation letter from the school, and I had gone back to Japan having only half-finished my discussion with the consultant.
But the consultant at Shiraishi VisaJP Canada properly discussed things with me while I was in Japan and even obtained the graduation letter from the school. My grandfather’s condition was not stable, so I was worried about when I would be able to go back to Canada, but the consultant timed the PGWP application so that I could delay my return as long as possible.
And then came COVID. I thought it was all over.
But I had left a lot of things in Canada, and even I have quite a few friends there, so I kept thinking that I wanted to go back but that it was probably impossible now.
Then in July, right in the middle of the COVID pandemic, my Post-Graduation Work Permit was issued. I properly got a permit that lets me work for three years.
How was your experience using Shiraishi VisaJP Canada’s services?
I am really glad I asked Shiraishi VisaJP Canada.
Future outlook and a message for those planning to travel to Canada
Because of COVID, I still do not know when I can go to Canada, but my grandfather told me to do my best before he passed away, so from now on I want to work hard on my immigration application in Canada again. I will rely on this consultant all the way to immigration. I am glad I found out about Shiraishi VisaJP Canada.
