Hi guys, I applied for my work permit in April 10 and it was refused on May 6 due to a technical issue, after clarifying it I reapplied on May 25 but after few ghost updates my biometrics got updated. After that it is showing my background verification in progress.
my application is LMIA exempt, TEER 1 category, NOC 31100 in IRCC site it has been mentioned that the processing time is only 2 weeks.
Do they actually give priority for LMIA exempt by any chance??
They are not accessible by any means as I’m applying from outside ??
I have paid my university registration fee, my council registration fee and visa application fee (twice).
I’m clueless how long should I wait as my course is commencing July 1st.
I’m going through mental agony everyday as I have resigned my current job.
I would be happy if anyone could guess what is exactly going on with my application and throw some lights

Are you nominated by a province? You are applying under LMIA exempt T13?

Where do you see 2 weeks processing times ?

Hi! I have recently filed for a LMIA-exempt work permit application and I would say the processing is fairly quick. If you are qualified for the 2-week processing time (based on your job code) then you should be expecting a verdict no more than 4 weeks. I'm applying from the US if that helps.
