Canadian Embassy Manila - Which set of processing times

[deep-1975]

Hi all,

I have a closed work permit in Canada and we've applied for my spouse, a Filipino citizen, to get an open work permit to join me. We did this in July of last year. The CIC website states processing times for temp work permits to be 7 months. Its just gone over 7 months.

I'm wondering if anyone has experience or advice on how often an application goes well past the stated processing times, and if I should be looking at a different set of processing times. Perhaps the processing time for a spousal application work permit? I'm unsure.

Does anyone think that the issues with Typhoon Yolanda will push everything back?

Hope you can help. Thanks all

Re: Canadian Embassy Manila - Processing time for renewal of my working visa

Hello
I would like to ask regarding the processing time of renewal of re entry working visa in Philippines. Currently I'm here at Alberta Canada and I'm going to have a vacation in Philippines for 1 month this coming march 2013. And I'm planning to renew my working visa. Could I get my new working visa before I finish my 1 month vacation.

As of now my working visa will be expired on May 30, 2013. That why I need yo renew.

Hope you can help. Thanks all
