Hi cmcomic,
I had the same problem. My document was sent to my old address.
If you have access to the mailbox there, you'll be fine. Just try to retrieve it from there.
I couldn't do it, so I had to wait for 6 more weeks after which I called CIC and they sent me another copy to my current address on the same day.
I hope that helps.

Thanks for your reply.
We are in the same boat.
yea, I had moved out the old address that I had no rights to access the mail box.
I contact the apartment of the old address that they will check if anyone live there.
If not, they are able to access the mailbox.
But who knows when will the mail comes.
After 6 weeks, the Christmas Holiday, maybe they dont work.
Then wait until next year.
Also hope you good luck.
The mail to your old address should come in 5-10 days.cmcomic said:Hi lauraDz,

If not, I would advise you to call CIC and ensure that your new address is the only address they have on your file. Because they had my new address as "residential address" and my old address as "mailing address". Also, I would ask them to tell the exact day when you can call and ask for another copy of your document (they do that pretty quickly). This should be exactly 6 weeks since your first document was issued.
Good luck! I hope you will be able to retrieve it from your old address. It's really frustrating to wait for 6 more weeks.
I was in the same situation, I requested a visitor visa for my wife while we are waiting for my PGWP right now she is with me, as soon as a get my permit i will request the OWP for her. i'm thinking to flagpole to do that, i don't want to be 6 month more waiting again. in this moment im calling CIC, i will share with you guys the answer, probably the same than always.kristianvassilev said:May 5 applicant.

Still waiting...
Separated from my wife for 6 months now. She can't apply for OWP before I get my PGWP.
TOTALLY truth.....i just called, the guy just ask me when i sent the last document and told me that from that date my wait time restart.Canadatoday said:I don't call anymore for CIC call center it is a totally waste of time.
For REAAAAALLL?? i have friends that get their PGWP one week after the $100 payment....
BTW was kind of grumpy, i think those guys are tired of us....
When did you apply?guillecr said:
I decided to give them one more chance LOL and I called today again. I got a nice lady and she said that my file is being reviewed. The thing is my passport is about to expire that means my permit will arrive expired because the day of the permit is the day of our passport.
I decided to send the new passport through the website.
I applied April, 30. I think I am the worst situation here. Anybody else?
Hi guys
I just got off the phone with the call center and the agent was really nice and understanding. She said I should have had an answer by now and she's sending a message to the processing center to the officer to give me an answer. Anyone know how long it could take from the time she sends a message? Has anyone experienced this??

Sorry to disappoint you but that can take forever! I got the same answer on September, 15 and I am still waiting for the CIC to end my case.mets15 said:
But does that maybe have something to do with you sending a new passport? :/Canadatoday said:Sorry to disappoint you but that can take forever! I got the same answer on September, 15 and I am still waiting for the CIC to end my case.
My file is already 'flagged to be approved' according to CIC call agents (3 of them said same thing) and the MP's office. The officer just didn't officially approve yet. :'(
