Yes, are you a single application without any dependent?espasol said:wow! congratulations in advance.I just mailed my application, hope it would be received either tuesday or wednesday
If yes, your processing time would be less than 2 months...
If no, then you need some patient to wait.
but, good luck to you.
Hi fortsask! I am eligible to file by 3rd week of November under the caring for children pathway, however, I plan to wait until I receive my new/extended work permit. My current work permit under the Live-in Caregiver program is valid only until January 17, 2016. I applied for extension last August 26 and waiting for approximately +/- 109 days processing (as per CIC website). I decided to do this to make sure that my work permit is valid until they finish processing my application under the new pathway which they say is guaranteed 6 mos. do you think I am on the right track? Anyone here who has inputs would be greatly appreciated!fortsask said:
Thank you!
Hi espasol! Are you by any chance under the old live-in caregiver program and is planning to apply for PR under the new pathway? Did you have to renew/extend your work permit which was previously for a live-in caregiver job before submitting your application for PR under the new pathway? I am asking because I intend to apply under the caring for children pathway but is unsure on what to do with my work permit. It is supposed to expire on January 2016. I am eligible to apply for PR around 3rd week of November this year. I am worried that before a decision has been made on my PR application my work permit will expire. Would appreciate your input on this. Thank you so much!espasol said:
my work permit is still valid until next year of august because this is my 2nd employer already. in your case, your work permit should be valid when you file for PR because you will be asked to submit your latest work permit as requirement, so this should be valid.tabznya said:
So do you suggest that I wait on my new/extended work permit before applying for my PR? I am hoping to have it around mid December (+- 109 days processing according to cic) but I am eligible to apply already by 3rd week of November? Because I am worried that a decision is not available yet by the time my current work permit expires on January if and when processing of my PR application will take the maximum 6 months. By the way I am married, just 1 dependent. Thanks for your prompt reply!espasol said:
I suggest you submit your PR application on Nov 3rd. Your current work permit is valid. And if your Work permit expires while waiting for the PR result you will have an implied status, but that wont matter because you are expecting a new work permit.
I am also married and with 1 dependent.
Good luck to you!

Will I still fall under the implied status? I wasn't sure if that is only applicable for the Live-in Caregiver program.fortsask said:I suggest you submit your PR application on Nov 3rd.

By the way, are you applying under the new pathway too?
I suggest you submit your pr application and owp application together.tabznya said:
Then you can still work if you did not get the owp and you can change your jib after you have the owp.
That is better for you.
Btw, everyone in this post is applying under new caring for children pathway.
