[hajamaro]

hi all
i live in egypt

i cant apply for the visa before 1st of february 2014 and my work in canada must start at april 1st 2014
can i demand an acceleration of the processing time or it does not have any tolerance

My paper work in egypt and in canada that will be needed for applying for the visa wont be completed before that date unfortunately

I do not think you can speed it up
when they say 3 months it is avg so maybe more or less so hope it'll be less for you

did you recive + lmo
please share timeline if you can

No - you cannot demand an accelerated processing time. There is no expedite processing available for work permits. There is some chance that your work permit may be processed in two months. So submit your paperwork as soon as you can and hope for the best.

But you still need a work permit, you can't work as a visitor.
