Live-in caregiver PR applicants for April,May and June timeline

[marshmallow]

Just talked to my hubby (LC1), he called CIC this morning to ask about any update on his OWP..... he said that the agent that he talked to did not even ask for his ID number, the agent just asked when did he apply and he answered last week of april2010... and the agent told him that they are still working on applicants from 2nd week of april and have to wait for 3-4 weeks for any update on his OWP..... i really hope APRIL2010 applicants will pass the first hurdle soon...... and also CIC will compensate for the time they process the OWP and shorten the processing time for the 2nd stage...... ???

Just like what i thought it would be frozen again on April 3, 2010. not gonna be surprise if the processing time next week will be 16 months. f**k you cic. its not funny anymore. hope somebody from the government is reading this forum even just 1 person so that you people thats sitting in your pedestal will know how much pain and suffering your causing us LIC.

Guys aside from seeking help from our MP's and sending letters and emails to Minister Jason Kenny which i think mostly goes to junkmails, have you already tried to ask the help of any Filipino Support Groups, NGO's and Advocates like those people who help with the case of that filipina who passed away last 2009 who's fighing for her PR approval because she was diagnosed with cancer? ( sorry i forgot her name).i guess this people are our only hope. What do you think guys? instead of posting all of our frustrations lets make some actions as well.

I think that was Juana Tejada and the bill that was approved for no second medical exam was named after her. Her lawyer- Rafael Fabregas which happens to be on twitter as well is an advocate for the LCP gaining conditional PR upon arrival which they are pushing to be approved.

I wont be surprise if they get stuck for another 4 months, CIC wont mind taking 5years to process OWP guys. If we are over 200 people on Facebook,why cant we do something ? let us all split ourselves in each province,we go to CIC's offices and protest all this rubbish .


The Association of Live-in Caregiver Canada is so USELESS !! I dont know why there is an association that is non-functional,it should just be desolve. The Filipino Community too are just nothing but a bunch of people who enjoys seeing their people suffer, Filipino has the largest number of caregiver in Canada and they can't all come together and do something ? It really a shame !

Well I think that they are trying to make everything come through in 4yrs. We wait two years to apply and then two yrs to leave the program. So we slowly creeping up form 15-16 months to 24 months. Its just the system, maybe its working with the new 4yr cap they have on temporary foreign workers.

My work permit expires February 2012 and my job situation right now is already very uncertain. What I have tried to do and I encourage everyone to do is to take our minds off the processing time and focus on our lives. Do some courses or something.

I also have decide to go home as often as I can, I know they say once we apply for PR we may not guarantee reentry if we leave the country but I went home last may to visit my husband and I may just as well go home one more time before my permits expire and I get stuck here and my poor husband stuck there ( sucks) .

application sent in December 31, 2010

Hi Kalinka,

When you started the Program, how many employer/s did you have from the beginning till the end of your LCP? And on your recent WP extension application, did CIC asked for a new LMO or you passed your old LMO?

Thanks.

I started LIC program on Feb 16th 2008. I had 2 employers. Feb 2008 - Aug 2008 - the first one, and Jan 2009- present - second employer. I sent my old LMO (LMO for second employer, which I received on Oct 2008 and sent for my second WP).
So now I have 3 WP (one old for first employer, one old for second employer, and one new (for the same employer - just I renewed it)
And I am waiting for 4st - Open Work Permit ))))))
Patient. Just a little bit patient for all of us
