Work permit question

[KandyK]

My friend is on a visitor visa. He wants to apply for a work permit. He has to leave after he apply for it because he still has a job back home he has to go back to. He was wondering if he has to apply for a work permit inside Canada, since he is here now. Or he has to wait till he leaves and apply for it outside Canada. He is in canada for another two months before he head back to his country. Thank you in advance.

After studying a year. I applied for my work permit and submitted my application on May 10, 2024.

I am particularly concerned because several individuals who submitted their applications at the same time, including my twin brother, received their approvals within a month. In contrast, my application has now surpassed the typical processing time.

I have made numerous attempts to seek information about my application status. Unfortunately, when I call, the automated system states it cannot receive calls and disconnects. Additionally, I emailed question@cic.gc.ca but have not received any response. This delay is causing considerable anxiety and uncertainty, as my work plans are contingent upon the approval of this permit. I am reaching out in the hope that someone can provide guidance or assist in expediting my application.
