I've applied for bridging open work permit a month ago since my current permit and permit for my wife and two sons are about to expire in month from now.
At the time I applied online processing time was about 10 days and since than they have approved only one permit and that's for my 6 year old son even though I applied for all of us in one application.
Rest of us are still waiting but it's taking to long now.
My question is if anyone has had a similar case and had to call CIC center to inquire about it, I'm thinking about calling but I'm not sure if I'll get any specific information or I'll get one of those prerecorded messages?

I have the same problem. I sent my application on Sept 10 and still no update. Current processing time is 18 days and they're working on Sept 14 (according to website). I tried calling the hotline but they just keeps cutting me off due to high volume of calls. :mad:

I'm expiring on January but I am required working hours in order to upgrade my course before the end of the year...
