At the rate they're processing 2013 apps, my guess is that you'll never get OWP.

It is taking roughly 11 months to get first stage approval (AIP) and that is when you will get OWP. So roughly sometime next month perhaps, although they have slowed down a bit again recently, so expect maybe a little longer. Just hang in there. They WILL get to everyone and when they start moving again, it will be fast and make your head spin.

Good luck!

how did you get the info?
if they are that's great news.. but not sure if its true.
 
Just an update guys: I'm a March 2013 applicant for spousal sponsorship + OWP. Anyway haven't heard anything about it of course. But anyhow my work permit expired in November 30th of this year, so first week of September, I extended my stay as a visitor and exactly 87 days later (cause I did paper submission instead of online).. I was informed by CIC that it was approved and it's on its way, valid for a year. Following the 11 months timeline for 1st stage approval, I'm hoping we'll receive the AIP and OWP in February.

Thank you MisterBob for doing this, it's always great to see the progression and look for patterns. We appreciate it, keep it up! +1 for you!

If it's anything like the two week same date episode as we see here, there will be a big jump next week. Stay positive guys, the holidays are just around the corner. 2014 will be an amazing year for most of us! :)

A look at the spreadsheet below quickly tells us that the CIC is currently processing applications received in Feb. 2013. It has disposed of all the January applications last week.

Please note this only represents the people on this forum, there are probs thousands of applicant's who aren't on here, so although the applications in January have received AIP on this forum, it doesn't mean all January applications have gotten AIP.
 
Hi guys,

Just a heads up I got my landing date for Jan.22 2014, I land in Calgary agent told they had sent me landing letter via e-mail today (which I haven't gotten yet) and if I don't get the email within a few days I should call back so landing letter could be sent for me via snail mail.
