A wp-ext letter is a document that is issued when you apply for your PGWP application online, on the ircc portal. In that letter, it is usually mentioned that IRCC has received your application for PGWP and grants you interim permission to work while your PGWP application is in process.
The WP-ext letter is an important document, that is usually demanded by employers who want to hire workers who have applied for PGWP and are authorized to work, this is proof of authorization to work for employers.
Even though you do not need a wp-ext letter specifically to work while your PGWP application is in process, having one makes it a lot easier, to show employers you are authorized.
