after tried 3 times this afternoon, I got connected to ircc, right now on hold, waiting time 10 mins.. so I am just guessing, if you call in the afternoon before they finish work, you might get connected. so you don't have to wake up at 7..

Just received a generic reply from my CSE, agent Etienne:

My WP is expiring by the end of the month, still waiting for the BOWP as well.
My wife being pregnant due in May is what is stressing me out with all the wait. I thought that with LMIA approved the proccess would be much smoother, but is not being the case here..
Files are still in Ottawa, you guys think I should email them as well?
Thanks for any inputs
