Do anybody know the combination of ext. numbers to actually talk to an agent at the call center?
It's been 3 months since the last time I talked to someone there!

I'm kind of worried, it's been a year since got AIP and I haven't had any news yet.

Thank you! Blessings!

Just hit 1 at every menu until it requests the file number and year of birth for the sponsor, you may get the "high call volume & no available agents" message but most of the time I get to speak to someone.

Lets say theoretically we had a SIN and OHIP (or any health insurance) before, but that that expired while we were waiting in processing. When we get OWP and renew SIN, will we have to wait 3 months for OHIP to kick in again?

Hi mattb123, in Ontario you have 3 months to renew your OHIP after it expires.

If you are able to renew it before the 3 month deadline you will NOT have to wait 3 months for it to kick in.

But if you are only able to renew your OHIP AFTER the 3 month deadline, you will have to wait the 3 month period for it to kick in.
 
I just got off the phone with CIC. agent told me my OWP was issued and mailed yesterday. I also got my OWP app number...Im so happy!! Nov 4th/2013 applicant ..... Nov/2013 applicants should start getting OWP anytime!!
 
Now that my partner has OWP and a SIN, what are the chances that if she goes on a vacay to the states, she will not be allowed back in Canada?
 
Same question though I'm not from a visa-exempt country. What steps I can take to re-enter canada once I have my owp & if i decided to go to the US?
