hi Kristina the expiration of your OWP is 2015, is that the same validity of you passport?

 

[laranel]

same remarks to me too, i guess the best thing is to be thankful than waiting and waiting until 19 months.

Hi Wsongco up to when is the validity of your OWP? mine is Apr 2013 same as validity of my passport....

That's a useful info- that the 1 2 7 update doesn't always reflect the actual status - it gives hope to some with a similar cases.

This just my opinion: You can always resign from your current employer if you wish, just give them 2 weeks notice. I know you have a sense of professionalism, but in this case, you have to do what you have to do, if you think it is more beneficial to you and your family fopr you to find a better paying job, which you are now free to do, why suck it up?

These are facts :

On the work permit, it says you are not allowed to attend any educational instituion unles authorized... That is why you need to apply for a study permit shld you wish to updrade your skills. I have a study permit myself.


You must leave Canada upon work permit's expiration date - this is standard wordings, it means you need to renew it before it expires.


AND I COMPLETELY AGREE, WE MUST CONTINUE OUR PETITION FOR FASTER FAMILY REUNIFICATION.

correct me if im wrong according to our work permit were not allowed to study unless you give up your work permit in exchange of student permit. its one or the other. please send me the link on how you apply both. thanks

I had called cic today and there is some information:

Everybody that applied for PR+OWP under the live in caregiver program will received the OWP soon.

It doesn't not mean 1st stage of approval, 1st stage of approval will be after 18/19 months after the date that they receive your application.

The after you received the 1st stage of approval letter than you wait more 17 months to conclude your process and received your PR.

I'm saying as a single applicant. Probably I will get any letter from the government in april of 2012.

With your OWP you CAN leave the country and come back just have to apply for an entry visa, as I have a USA visa I'm going to SEATTLE to do it.

I also renewed my sin yesterday, I went to a service Canada and renewed. Fast and free. They gave me a paper proving that I'm legal and my sin number is ok. It will come by mail a new sin card in 4 weeks. Same number..starting with 9.

Hi strikenannies,
Do you have an idea how long it'll take for canadian embassy seattle to process the re entry? I was supposed to the application for trv in person because i have US visa as well but when i called canadian embassy seattle they said the 24 hour processing time for in person application is not available anymore. There is no guarantee how many days they will process it so meaning, you have to stay in seattle while waiting for your trv because you have to submit them your original passport. And without your passport, you can't be admitted back here in canada( border)

So i decided to do it in our country coz i don't have info how long they're going to process it...
By mail ut usually is 30 days but i don't want to do that cause the time is tight...

@wsongo- Who told me about this pilot project was the agent from CIC... I believe that its'true I just don't believe that it's just that, I think it's kind of iceberg...we see just the top...

@berry- I didn't know that the canadian embassy doesn't do it anymore...i was planning to do that...Go to seattle one day and come back on the another...

Probably I will have to send my passport...
