Hi Maryam, what would be the next step after this? Did they return your passport with working visa in it?

My passport has not returned yet,I guess I would receive it next week. The next step is fly to Canada and start to search for jobs .

Faster processing times for workers and families

Mississauga, ON, March 26, 2013 — As a result of actions taken by the government since 2008, the backlog of permanent resident applications has been reduced by about forty percent, paving the way for a faster and more effective immigration system in 2013 and beyond, Citizenship, Immigration and Multiculturalism Minister Jason Kenney announced today.

“Backlogs and delays prevent Canada from attracting the best and brightest from around the world and ensuring that our immigration system is contributing to economic growth and long-term prosperity,” said Minister Kenney. “For too long, we accepted far more applications than we could process each year. That led to backlogs increasing every year and processing times of eight to ten years in some cases, which discouraged talented, dynamic people from coming to Canada.”

This has been accomplished, in part, by continuing to process a high number of applications from parents and grandparents in the Family Class while a temporary pause on new applications remains in effect until the end of the year. In addition, a pause was put in place on new Immigrant Investor applications and the oldest Federal Skilled Worker applications were eliminated while we continued to process record high levels of existing applications.

The government will continue to transform Canada’s immigration system to make it fast, flexible and more responsive to the labour market. The massive reduction in the backlog allows us to move toward a just-in-time system that recruits people with the right skills to meet Canada’s labour market needs, fast tracks their applications and gets them working in Canada in a period of months, instead of years. It also means that families will no longer have to wait close to a decade to be reunited with their loved ones.

“We still have work to do, but by taking clear and decisive action to deal with backlogs, we will attain our goal of having a fast and flexible immigration system,” said Minister Kenney. “Newcomers will arrive with skills and talents that are in short supply in Canada and contribute to our economy. The immigration system must work for Canada, which is why we will continue to reduce backlogs and speed up the system, so that people spend less time waiting and more time participating fully in the Canadian economy.”

Thank You Imran, But how much days you got MR after you OWP application? My two friends who applied just 5 -6 days before my application got MR 7-10 days after their OWP application and one of them got WP while i am still on the Red Singal. This analysis made me surprised, is the Barcode page print quality may be the issue for this late? I also sent all docs according to checklist.

I got MR after 25 days but due to change in IOM rules, it took me one month to get done my MR. Processing time for OWP is 4 month from ISB visa office. No need to worry, for PNP nominees the only check is admissibility/security clearance otherwise they can't refuse your application.

[atinsingh]

I am planning to apply OWP, could u please list me forms I have to fill and document I have to sent to VO.

 

[salooni]

Thank you for your reply Imran. Pl elaborate the "admissibility". As far as security checks are concerned i submitted police certificates. I heared that they will windup all cases before May this year. But issue is that, they did nt even send MR so that process may go forward. My application for owp took 46 days till today with out any hearing.

 

[Man on the Moon]

I hope its true that they clear all pending applications by May 2013.

Dears;

If you went to Canada using OWP visa, can we transfer our application to be processed in Canada rather than the visa office outside Canada ?

Anyone have an idea about that?
