When does your current WP expire?

It expired April 5th. Im working on implied status right now.

I just called the helpline and they said they have no record of this email being sent also my application still says "in progress". Clearly Vegerville and Ottawa do not talk or share info.

 

[NBelkin]

Aprill 11th and waiting.

This sounds weird. It is likely CIC has made a mistake and deemed you ineligible because they incorrectly thought you WP had expired when they started processing your application. But you did apply prior to your WP expiring so you are ok.
