Hello Navin,
Its depend on your high or low wage LMIA application. If you have applied under low wage LMIA then it will take around 3 months to get interview for your employer. otherwise if you applied under high wage then the processing time will be 10 business days. Moreover you do not need to worry for your applied work permit extension it will take more than 3 months to get decision while applied WP you can work in Canada.

Best of luck for your positive LMIA.

Members - Just an update of my LMIA. I got to know from my HR that my LMIA got approved and they received the Fax on Aug 30. Service Canada took like 3 days more than their promised 10-day business processing. The company was very supportive and had good coordination with the Service Canada.

I believe a lot of people here ask a lot of questions about LMIA before it gets approved and never follows through after they get the LMIA; so I wanted to make sure I let my result know which would help future people reading this thread have some additional information. I hope that you will hear some positive news on your LMIAs. Good luck people!
Thank you so much for your update frostmill. This information helped me a lot.

apparently the employer hasn't even been invited for the interview yet
so to my knowledge it's been escalated
fyi BC.
