Hi,
My NOC is 6311, I have done my Biometric on 21st February 2021. I have summited all the documents including medical police clearance. I lived in Dubai but applied from India because processing time was only 8 weeks from India. Now days covid hits badly in India, if you could let me know. What will happen now.
Thank you!

What is your question exactly? You wait for a response to your application. Work permit processing can take many months. Assume you are still in India.

I would like know that how long it will take to approve work permit from India. I have LMIA already. At the moment I am living in Dubai UAE.

Honestly no one can tell you because of current COVID conditions. Processing times have increased again and are no longer 8 weeks. Is your NOC essential? Those are being prioritized.

Estimated times that are posted are often incorrect. 8 weeks from India seems much faster than actually times unless you fall under GSS. Covid has had a huge impact on the food service industry so there are many who are unemployed. Did your employer get approved for an LMIA recently?

Did you apply online or you used a representative to process your application?

I didn't apply by myself, representative from Canada doing all the process for me. And I spend penalty of money as well. I am hoping for best because I m doing everything for my family.

What do you mean you spent money? Just on the cost of the work permit, right? Where is this job as a food supervisor?

If you need to spend any money on top of a normal visa, it may be a spam/fake job.

If the agent is in Canada I think it is a criminal act versus a spam/fake. If you are paying the agent and business to hire you all 3 of you are committing a crime. If caught all three of you will be in trouble including you losing your WP.

Your employer needs an LMIA and you need to apply for a WP if the employer's LMIA is approved.
