On February 14, 2019, the Government of Canada made several changes to the Post Graduation Work Permit (PGWP) Program Guidelines. These new guidelines are effective for all PGWP applications received on or after February 14, 2019. The most notable changes made to the PGWP Program include the removal of the requirement to hold a valid Study Permit when applying for a PGWP and the extension of the deadline to apply from 90 days to six months. PGWP applicants who have been refused the work permit based on the prior guidelines (before February 14, 2019) may submit a new application under the new guidelines, if they are eligible to apply. Borders Law Firm welcomes the changes to the PGWP program as they provide international students with greater flexibility as to when they can apply for this type of work permit.

Victor Hernandez Andres and his team at Borders Law Firm really impressed everyone at Siller Helicopters. We came to Andres with a very complex case for work visas, with a time-sensitive and moving window. Andres was very responsive to all forms of communication which highly contributed to completing the work visa packets in a very short window of time. Their knowledge and attention to detail are impressive and made it a pleasure to work with Andres and his team. Our crews had no issues getting their work visas approved when they arrived in Canada. In fact, the Canadian officials complimented the visa packets they presented, stating they were the most professional and organized packets they had seen in a long time. Thanks to Andres and Borders Law Firm, Siller Helicopters was able to take part in the emergency restoration of power, to towns that were affected by this year's wildfires in Canada. Thank you again Borders Law Firm.
Dan Pasupatham Devika and her team showed high professionalism from the start of the immigration process. Well communicated every steps of the way. Highly recommend them for any visa related matters. Thank for your excellent service.
Amit Pandey We wanted to write sincere thanks to John, Devika and Borders Law firm for the help throughout the process. John was extremely kind and thorough and he counselled with suitable options available for me on migration to Canada, documentation submissions, query resolutions, visa processing and continued personal support and follow up until the last step I am beyond grateful for their kindness and service. I will be using them for any changes to our companies immigration needs going forward. Would recommend this firm for anybody blindly looking for immigration help. They would guide you with complete transparency and professionalism. Thank you once again.
Satish Maduri I had a very good experience with Borders Law Firm. Though my PR file was a bit complicated, Brendan, Andres and Devika worked extremely well in a thorough and perfect manner. I was so happy when my PR application was processed in a record-breaking 45 days, thanks to the meticulous handling of my case by the lawyers.
