hi everyone, been trying to call cic for some questions about my WP. You might have some answers for me. Sent my OWP and PR application oct. 29, received nov.4, in process nov.7

My WP will expire Sept 2012, as well as my passport, OHIP and SIN. I am also planning to get a new employer. Im only paid 1/4 of what regular nannies get every month. But im worried about my WP.It would take i guess 5-6 months for a new work permit to come out right? So if i get a new employer this would mean i will be paid cash while waiting for my new WP. This is where the problem sets in. My current employer doesnt want this kind of set up that id be paid cash by another employer when they still appear to be my employers in my WP. Im messed up i dont even know what to ask. but ill ask anyway.

1.How soon should i extend my WP if i decide to stay with my current employer until my OWP comes out? is two months before expiration ok?

2. Should i renew passport first before sending extension application of my WP?

3.If i start working for a new employer and my WP has expired and the new WP hasnt come out yet, am i safe coz that would mean i dont have a status?

4. I thought of going home to the Philippines DEc 2012. IS this possible? When they said once application is in process we cant leave the country anymore or we might be denied entry when we come back?

Thank you!

Try to call the automated cic toll number 18882422100 then press 1 then press 2 then press 7 and provide your client ID number and birth year.. My friend just got approved her Work PErmit. She passed her OWP/PR last November 2, 2011. It's just one month and hoping it's true.

@neng23, i'm still kind of skeptical about it until I will see her OWP in hand. She phoned CIC thru the voice message 18882422100 then 1 then 2 then 7 and it says been approved last Dec. 3, 2011 and the agents confirmed it too. We'll see if this is really true. I'm happy for her. Mine doesn't says that my OWP approved. It only says the details of my last new employer WP approval that has been issued last October 2011.

@miseria you have to renew your passport right away. It might cause you delay to recieved owp. Where are you from? Which country?

To those who got their OWP in just a few months, did you submit it electronically?did you use the generic form?did you mail your application?I submitted mine by mail using the old form in Sept 2011.I don't know the status of my application except that it is in process whenever I check online..Hopefully someone can give me hope.
