5 months + 1 day .... ???.....hope the PPR batches continue, high hopes from this week....if they send out a batch everyday, outlanders will probably receive their PPRs starting 15th January

I don't think CIC would continue to prioritize inlanders over outlanders, as such, I am hoping to see a batch for outlanders this week.

from you'r mouth, to CIC's ears ;)

It is getting harder and harder to wait... there is a saying: the night is darkest just before dawn ( might have lost something in translation - but you get my point).

I am hoping and praying every minute or every day when I am not sleeping and doing the same in my sleep, that this long wait is nearing it's end.

If not this week., I hope next week ..

Lols, I really hope they could hear me!!!! From the look of things, the bulk of July inlanders and a significant number August Inlanders already their PPRs, as such, it makes a bit of sense to start looking into outlanders' PPR backlogs.

I feel your pain with the wait thing; waiting for immigration decision is perhaps the worst kind of waiting there is in this universe. The wait puts almost everything on-hold.

Hi OshKoshBeGosh, congrats for the PPR.

Question on work permit extension - currently am on a LMIA based work permit and is expiring end of April 2016. I have applied for the PR (FSW Inland, November AoR). I am trying to figure out when should I apply for my work permit extension. I believe there is is something called BOWP I need to apply as well, or is WP extension and BOWP - the same?

Can you please help me with the appropriate link that gives me the details of what application package I need to submit and by when?

Also a related question, my wife currently is on open work permit and is working. Can we also apply for extending her open work permit and she will be able to continue to work?

Hi

You can apply for your Work permit extension within 3 months of the expiration date on your WP.

I prefer the online application. If you have a My CIC account, you can start by answering the questions ( since you want to extend your spouse WP as well, choose Accompanying Family member as YES so you can apply for both in the same account at the same time - I did this for my husband). It will create a profile for you and you can upload the applications + required documents.

Once you apply, you will get a confirmation. Even if it takes longer time ( goes over April 2016), you are on implied status. When your WP extension is approved, you will get an email and them the WP will come in the mail.

Let me know if you have any questions. Happy to help.
 
I got ITA on June 29 and submitted the online app on Aug 4, and got AOR at the same day. Inland FSW. Now it is still stuck at Eligibility review, nothing else needed. It's been 5 months precisely. Anyone in same situation? Should I start to worry?

The night is darkest before dawn. impressive dialogue. I think I heard that in the legendary movie "Dark Knight". ;)

I am sure we are reaching that dawn. It's going to be any moment folks :)

You couldn't be more right mate. Because of this waiting for immigration decision, I have been forced to put many things in hold.

But it's ok, I am just praying that all of us will get a positive decision. :)
