Any news of PPR for Aug
or Sep app?
-------------------------------------------------------------pp2713 said:CIC should clear PPR for August & Sept 2015 applicants by the end of November or early December. And if not within that time range then I am guessing probably in January as there will be Christmas breaks in December so.
You don't need to apply for Open WP like 2 months in advance. You can apply for it, a week or 10 day prior to your existing WP expires. Do paper application as it takes about 115 days to process. Mine took 114 days. So after you make an application for OPW and your current wp expires you will have 3 months under implied status. By that time you should've got your PR.qtie1 said:-------------------------------------------------------------
Yeah,that is what I am thought, my wp permit will expire around mid of Jan 2017.So I guess I have to apply for open work permit at Nov 2016
Is there anyone know how to apply for open work permit? thanks :-*

Yes it is mentioned on the website but you can even apply a day before expiry date.qtie1 said:---------------------------------------------------------
Open WP I thought is applied online? My friend applied online and its only take 1 month.
CIC website saying 3 months before your work permit will expire, the applicant have to apply for extending work permit(open work permit)

Yes it is true that online applications are processed faster than paper ones, but what if you get rejection after one month for some reason. But if you do papper application it will buy a time ( implied status).
I will recommend you to go on border and apply for visa if you want it right away. since you have a valid status right now you can go to border and apply for WP they will give new workpermit either or open or closed. Even if you get rejection at border you can enter in Canada as you will still have valid workpermit till January as you said. You can again do paper or online application prior to current one expires. But this is for sure that on border you will get WP.
Sorry but they don't issue BOWP at the border. You can get Closed work permit but your employer needs to pay compliance fee and you need Work permit support letter from province for that to happen.pp2713 said:Yes it is mentioned on the website but you can even apply a day before expiry date.

I was gonna tell you the same and just make sure when you apply for BOWP, you send them your PNP certificate(doesn't matter if expired) and AOR letter with rest of the documents.qtie1 said:-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Thanks for the advice!
For safe side, I will apply for open work permit around November, and I guess there's no rejection for us. Because we are PNP applicant and CIC would like to ask us to extend another one-year work permit.So we can wait for our PR come.
Also, when we landing we still need to have a vailed status.
