Hi Missy!

In our part, it's ok to loose her Student Status. We already talked about it and we decided to give up her studies for now but we're thinking about to continue her studies once we have PR status in canada so we dont have to spend so much money for the tuition fees.

Do you think I filled-up correctly our WP & Open work permit application in online Eligibility tool correctly?

thanks for your prompt response, really appreciate.

Hi,

I received my nomination (employer job offer - international student). I'm currently on OWP and it expires in December. I've received a support letter too. On the support letter, it says while applying for a work permit, to attach a receipt of compliance fee paid by the employer.

was your employer required to pay this fees
or where you exempt because you had OPW ?
Hi,
Congratulations for your nomination.
My status changed to 'Approved' on last Friday (28 of Sep). My stream is Foreign Worker but we have similar procedure I guess. Do you know how it goes after Approved? How long does it take to receive letter of Nomination? Did you apply for PR?
I will be happy if you can help.
Regards,
Erhan

Hi Everyone,

I submitted the application for OINP Employer job offer International student stream. on Oct 25 2018.
Is there anyone who has submitted theirs recently ?

I asked Ontario Contact center about the number of application remaining for this year and they said even if they run out of the numbers they will still process the application within the same time frame and count that towards 2019. So I took the risk and submitted that yesterday.

No That doesn't mean they are closed.
I meant to say In case they are closed by the time they reach to your application, they will still process application within regular time frame but they will consider the application under 2019 quota.
