WHY MY CANADA PGWP WAS REFUSED    Hello friends, in this blog post, I will provide you with real and practical knowledge about why many students’ PGWP applications are being refused in 2026, and why some students are getting only a 1-year PGWP even after completing a 2-year study program in Canada. The first and biggest reason for PGWP refusal in 2026 is language score eligibility Many students still do not know that IELTS, PTE Core, or CELPIP scores are now mandatory for most PGWP applications under the new IRCC rules. Some students submit their PGWP application without uploading language test results, while others submit scores that do not meet the required CLB level.

Canada has long been seen as a dream destination for international students, especially from India. However, things are no longer as easy as they used to be. What was once considered a highly welcoming system has now become noticeably stricter. In late 2025 and into 2026, visa refusal rates for Indian students have increased significantly, with reports suggesting figures as high as 74–80% . Because of this sharp rise, many are describing the current situation as the toughest phase in the past decade. At our overseas education office in Jalandhar, we are clearly seeing a big change. Earlier, most students and parents used to ask only about Canada. Now, many are looking at other countries like Germany, the UK, NZ, and Australia.
