Hi, I came through US-Canada border and applied refugee on 4 December then from montreal moved to Alberta did my medical examination and submitted BOC on 26th December. Received online application status change as “data entry” on 17th January but no response after that. Called the IRCC and they asked me to wait. Please someone help me to understand if there’s long waiting based on my entry date in Canada and what are the steps after medical test and boc submission. Thanking you in advance.
My application status is also "Data Entry" but already got work permit. Did you get your work permit ? if not than you need to send the email to IRCC or fill the web form about your case.
you can online submit the BOC form along with story

Thank you for your reply and finally I got someone who’s status also says “data entry”. I have already submitted the boc and story online as it was advised during border crossing and it was done right after my medical test. Now, I don’t understand what is the next steps of getting hearing date, SIN and driving license because the permit is only for 2years.

You can get SIN without brown paper. Just go to Canada Service with your work permit and copies of all border document. They will give you SIN.
Also go to test drive center with your work permit. they will also provide your paper for license. let me know for any further clarifications

From what I understand, it can take up to a couple months before WP after second interview. Got my second interview today and officer says I should receive my WP in the next 3 weeks. Hope you get yours soon
