Hey sorry first of all for the confuseing title for this thread. My company had an open lmia, I was named on that lmia and now I have applied for the work permit via cic.
Any idea how long this takes? It's stateing online 8 weeks, just want to know how long yours took? Should I expect the full 8 or even longer ?
I have been on an iec which has since expired :) so looking forward to returning

Just drive to the states and flagpole and get your work permit activated, I assume you're from a visa expempt country. I assume you're in Banff so just drive to Montana border crossing.
