hey guys

We submitted the In Land PR application in May, together with the Open Work Permit application.

But right now I can't see any status for OWP when checking online, neither with FN nor client ID.

We sent the PR and OWP applications in two envelopes, within one package, is that gonna cause any problem? they didn't match the OWP with PR application?

anyone has this experience?

thanks a lot

The OWP won't be approved until your application has first stage approval. First stage approval is currently taking 11 months to complete. So unfortunately you still have quite a wait ahead of you.

I know it won't get approved soon, but what I mean is how to check if they get the OWP application

any idea?

There's no way to check right now. You'll have to wait until they start working on your application. Right now they are working on applications from November 2012:

thanks for the info ;)

I was just afraid they didn't get the OWP application, and no way to confirm yet...

You put the PR application and OWP both in the same application package - correct? Or perhaps I misunderstood your first post?

yeah, same application package. Those two applications are in two envelopes, but mailed in one package.
