Hi,

I am October 2014 applicant. I have received my AOR but haven't received my OWP yet. I submitted it along with my PR application.

Is there anyone else, going through the same?

Thanks
I guess now 3 months have passed complete since Dec 22, 2014 since CIC introduced OWP for inland applicants waitung on valid status.. Has anyone got so far..Today is March 24, 3 months completed fully..with no news.. Any idea how will this process shape??

this is getting really frustrating, it has been 3 months for me and no news so far and on top of that, I saw they added 2 more months to the PR application processing :(

Same feeling!... 3 complete and no news for OWP.. If there are thousands of applicants, I dont think so all could be processed within next 4 weeks...Would be miracle if 4 months commitment is kept.. to deliver..

Anyone to advice on this please:

Applied for OWP on the 1 Year Pilot Scheme and was received January 26th (paper application)
Got through 1st Stage and now eligible to apply for OWP online

Since there has been no news on anyone who received OWP from the 1 Year Pilot scheme, will you advice to cancel the paper application and then apply online?

Thanks

Hello,

I applied for my PR in August 2013 under the spousal category in Canada. My PR application has cleared the first stage ie my wife's application to sponsor my PR has been approved by CIC, and I have also got my medical done and the medical results have reached CIC.. I am on a student visa as of now..

Now, I just came across this one-year pilot OWP program and it seems that I can apply for it. It turns out that if I have received an 'in-principle' approval for my PR from CIC (which I have) then I can apply for this OWP online.. However, I am unable to find the online link where I can apply for the same...

Can someone please help me find that link??

Thank you so much...
