Please dont lose hope Realben.. once VO start phoning and asking additional info's to your employer meaning its will just take few days to wait. Everyone of us has the same frustration everyday.. keep the faith.. in right day and time you will be surprised.

Thanks Jovie! :)
That's what I thought too. Service Canada started to ask my employer for additional information 3weeks ago. I thought it would take a few days but I'm still waiting...
In the meantime, one of my colleagues got his LMIA.

hey @kjg09 its the call centre that showed in MYCIC 18882422100.. CIC may only send you 2 updates (Application recieved/Payment Reciept AND/OR status update to OPEN/CLOSED - APPROVED) .. I applied online for work permt 2weeks before my status ends.

You will recieve an email first from them to tell you that you have an update on your CIC account :)
