One of my friend needs an advice, she submitted a renewal of work permit(March 2010) before the expiry date of her permit last April 2010. But when the application for renewal of permit was submitted, the LMO was still in process. LMO has been release last june 2010 and forwrded to CIC, its has been more than 5 months still no reponse from CIC. Her representative sent a letter to CIC informing that she doesn't receive any feedback from them and to follow up the application. She is now floating and don't know what's going on, does she need to apply for restoration or new work permit? The LMO will expire on december. What is the best way she needs to do?

Need an immediate suggestions please and thank you!

She is out of status and way past the 90 day period to submit restoration. Try calling CIC and ask what happened to her application.

Was her LMO for a new employer or the same employer. If with the same employer, ask CIC if she is in implied status considering she submitted her WP application before the expiration of her WP so she can continue working otherwise she'll have to wait till she gets her new WP.

She already phoned the CIC and told her that they are assessing her application.

Yes, the LMO is on the same employer. I will tell her to ask if she is on implied status. Thank you!
