Hey all,

I was going through the stat sheet that you all have on Google Drive. Just a heads up, the numbers aren't adding up properly (example -> applicant submitted application on January 7th, AoR was approved Feb 28th and it says the number of days was 39, when it should say 52 days, then it says OWP arrived in mail March 12th when the actual days between application submitted and work permit in the mail should say 64 days instead of 42 days)

Just giving you all a heads up, dunno if it matters. :p

I have recieved a letter of approval for OWP.

I’m lost!!!! I have an exclusion order and now I got this owp approval letter! (Note: I’ve recieved a PRRA application on the 25th of March, 2019)(my study permit valid till July 2019, I got an exclusion order because the year of 2018 I was on study permit without studying duo a bad legal advice from a lawyer)

Is this means my exclusion order it will be held or what’s going on now?

Hey, I think there is a note about that at the bottom. Looks like we are only looking at working days (so excluding weekends). Makes more sense to me to look at weekdays only. But makes it hard to benchmark against other months.

It's a little confusing imo, they do send AORs on Saturdays so that day counts too. And I just checked and it said I passed my medical! Also on a Saturday ^^

Suga use your application number but click on representative. There's 3 options... PA, SPONSOR and REPRESENTATIVE. when linking use rep because your sponsor is the rep. Yourself should use ecas to see otherwise.

I don't see this as an option anywhere.

Although i could not find the options suggested, i tried one more time to link and was successful. So PR linked to gckey. OWP was a fail to link. Is it even necessary as we already have the approval?

Hi Everyone
Good news! Finally I linked my application...I am very happy,Because I was very confused...
My application was uncomplicated,(IMM008,workpermit fee was missing).Very kind lady called me from unknown phonenumber ,told me I have to send it trough FAX.I did it quickly.Many people believed phone call was scam and my application supposed to send back,But I was very lucky,The phone call was reall and without receiving AOR,I linked my application right now!

Application has been received January 31.
Application linked today...

Well my IEC work permit runs out at the end of the day tomorrow and no approval of S-OWP yet so it looks like im extending my stay today! Thankfully its a simple process and all done online, if anyone else runs out of status before OWP approval, i highly recommend you do the same, Just in case!
