Hi Minime,

Did you ask for anything in particular when you called CIC? I think I am going to give them a call tomorrow just to see if they are able to see anything on my file - wish me luck! I´ll be sure to post any news here :)

Regardless, it is so refreshing to feel a cheerful vibe and all the excitement from our thread!!! if the last 2012 applicant was Dec. 24, then we WILL be hearing from CIC very very soon. yahoooooo... now I am also paranoid about hearing bad news! lol

I had sent them additional information so I was just checking to see if they received them and they told me yes they working on my file now

Thank you Minime! I do need to call to notify my change of address so hopefully that can spark some conversation or something :)

Hi folk,

I'm freaking out a bit. We applied for my husband's PR and OWP back in August. We used my parent's house as my mailing address as we just moved. My mom called me today and said that she got a letter saying we used an outdated form and that they sent back the entire application. After asking her a lot of questions, I understand that they sent back the OWP application and not the PR application. My hsuband's vistor's visa expire soon (Dec 14 - which does give us a bit of time) and I am worried that if the OWP is not back in with the correct form then he won't have implied status. Does anyone know if this is true? Also, I have no idea how I used an outdated form as I got if off the CIC website the day before we submitted the application.

I'm also quite nervous as I do not know exactly what the letter says yet - my mom was not helpful on the phone. Has this happened to anyone? My parents are out of town until Monday when my dad will send me a scan of the letter and he will physically bring it up here next week.

What is the correct form?

Thanks.

Go here:

http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/applications/extend-worker.asp

Open the the IMM 5710 and check if it was the same you used. This one is updated from July 2013.
*Check* OWP with a new employer

Then in the 3rd page, question 1A ask you "what type of work permit are you applying for" then it gives you a list of options, select Open Work Permit (is the first option).

NOTE: This application is for INLAND APPLICANTS ONLY
 
I am a little bit confused. so my application was received on Sept 11, 2013. how long does it take for them for start processing my file: it is been almost 2 months since they received my package. and does that also mean that i am not into first stage waiting line before my AOR (processing stage)?
Thank you for your replies , guys. :)
 
did they give you a UCI number ? if yes you can go to https://services3.cic.gc.ca/ecas/security.do?lang=en to check

I'm in Toronto - hubby is from New Jersey. At this point we probably need something stronger than coffee ;).

Indeed. Turbo coffee for sure with a side of Tequila. (ummm....yuck...nevermind) Wine bar?

I really hope so :) The progress has been amazing in the 2012 thread for the past two weeks. I hope they are done with February applicants by end of this year.
P.S. I am assuming officers were on break from December 25 to January 1 right?
