That's a very valid question. Logic suggests the following:

1 - To process 25000 refugee cases by February 2016, CIC needs trained personnel. They probably wont employ too many new officers because that will take too much time to ramp up and learn. So either they have called back retired CIC officers or have shifted current officers to process refugee cases. Considering the load, my bet is they utilized all 3 alternatives mentioned above.

2 - CIC relies on government and third party private organizations for screening, security/background & medical checks. Having to do 25000 more applications (on priority - before February 2016), on top of an already burdened schedule will surely cause immense delays from this end. I doubt private organizations will increase their staff on short term to meet CIC needs. Closest they will do is the same as part 1, which again doesn't help our case.

3 - They need more money. A lot of money to get this done. Its not a surprise, they asked for RPRF fee from many applicants a few weeks back. Even from those applicants who just received their AOR. ("rjml123" is one of examples)

To summarize, I thing they really are focusing just on the refugees for now. They most definitely should, but I do hope they hire more Visa officers and train them so our applications can be processed along as well.

I think what you wrote makes sense, and I truly sympathize with the refugees who are fleeing war and death, but don't you think it is legitimate, if it is the case that our applications will be deferred because of this, to feel that this is not fair for us who have been waiting for so long and sacrificed so much to get our PR? I think the procedures to get the PR and what is beyond that is already a pain in the neck without the refugees issue.

Hello All
Need suggestions for my status.

I am on close workpermit and my job is ending in Dec 2015 in Canada, so I ahve to return back to my country.
I have CSQ, applied for the PR and awaiting the AOR.
My Workpermit and visa is expiring in Apr 2016.

Is it easy to get the new workpemit if i find the new job.
I mean how long it takes to get the new workpermit, since the employer dont want wait for long time ( 3 to 4 months ) to join the company.

Any one knows how to get the new workpermit in shortime.

Hi
Processing time for inland work permit is 3 months, I don't think there is a way to get it faster unless CIC speed up processing applications in a faster pace like 2 years ago it took 40 days for my work permit renewal now it is taking 3 months.
What i suggest is to apply a s a p if your employer can wait, if not , just extend your TRV so you won't be out of status after April 2016 (( unless you want to go back to your country then do your landing once your PR is approved)) ..
I hope i was helpful , i am in the same situation and i could not find an employer who can wait 3 months for work permit, so i extended my temporary permit while waiting for PR, expected to be finalized in 2 months .

Good luck

Bridging open work permit is not workable for Quebec , I had the same situation and I checked with CIC and they said the only option for QSW is to apply for closed work permit with specific employer,,

these are the conditions for bridging open work permit ((QSW not listed)):
the federal skilled worker class (FSWC);
the Canadian experience class (CEC);
the federal skilled trades class (FSTC);
the caring for children class or the caring for people with high medical needs class; or
the provincial nominee class (PNC) (with the exclusion of nominees identified by the nominating province or territory as having employment restrictions imposed as conditions of the nomination).

There *are* some options for a CSQ holder to get an OWP:

Hi Lammawitch
Exemption to get LMO, but not to get OPEN WORK PERMIT , you still need a job offer unlike other provinces / categories where you are eligible for Open work permit after AOR (without an job offer).
I had the same case and CSQ helped me in the LMO exemption only.
