LMO / Work Permit Question

[Hunter]

I am currently on a working holiday visa which expires on June 26th 2013, My company have sent away for an LMO. Firstly will my LMO be back in time so I can apply for my work visa to be extended?

How long can you extend your work visa for with a positive LMO?

Any help or advice is very much appreciated.

1. Who knows, processing times vary from 6-16 weeks depending on the province.
2. Depends on how long it is approved for. Probably 3 years max (unusual) usually a 1/2 years.

6-16 weeks really? I was told that they can come back as soon as 5 days but should not take as long 2 weeks?

Without a positive LMO I will have to leave the country and my employment on June 26th? Is this correct or is there a way of applying for a WP extension while the LMO is pending?
