Hi guys..i hope someone can help me here..we have submitted my inland application to vegreville last week and confirmed by canada post thats its been received..i want my applicatin to be process inlamd becoz i have submitted owp apps as well but i mistakenly put cpp- ottawa in the visa office instead of vegrville.is that going to be a problem? Or should i wait after i receive my aor and send them a letter telling them to process my application in vegreville or inland. Im really worried....

I doubt that it will be a problem. They know you are filing Inland from your checklist and will most likely ignore the fact you put Ottawa in error. Why not just call the Vegreville CIC and let them know. They will advise you accordingly. Good luck.

Thats what i was thinking as well..becoz the fact thst i sent it to vegreville means its an inland application but im still not sure..i guess ur right i should call vegreville....my only mistake is that i should have applied outland in ottawa because im seeing that the processing is fast....

Any other input here....

I debated a long time whether to file inland or outland, but choose outland only becoz the applicant can leave Canada and it will not affect the processing. I thought its faster as well, but after studying a number of cases on this forum I am now convinced it is about the same time frame and there is an added advantage of getting the OWP early in the process with the Inland route allowing the applicant to work much earlier than if they choose outland.

OWP indeed gives you status to legally work but that does not mean that you can indeed get a job; of course, depending on the location and profession, and experience. A PR can receive a lot of services available. Reality here in Canada, OWP does not mean mean as much it sounds...
