Congrats Bro! I got it too :) Did you notice today is the 100th day??

By the way, it just says it is approved and no other docs are there to see. I remember folks mentioning that there is a pdf somewhere which tells the validity etc. Is it an email or does it get updated directly on mycic account?

In mycic account, it usually comes the next day.

Thanks Ray! By the way, is this doc like a scan of the hard copy or a completely different format? I ask because I was wondering if I can start working from Monday based on this pdf only..

No, it's not a scan of your work permit. It's just a document simply indicates the duration of your new owp and the type of your owp. That's it. I think you can use this to continue working since it's an official confirmation letter from CIC.

Cool. Thanks!

AD - have you seen this pdf in your account yet? Since we are birds of a feather so far as CIC goes, I suspect we might get it together as well.

I got the pdf updated in my account. But its a little confusing. It doesn't mention anything about being an open work permit.

The Type column says "Permit - WP-EXT" and the Validity is till 2016/06/30, is this what everyone gets?

Mine said that too, and the permit arrived as open, so you should be good.

Perfect, that settles it. How long did it take for you to get the physical copy?
About a week, if I recall
