Thank you so much for your help. I will just stop worrying about it at the moment and keep my fingers crossed. I have ordered for my GCMS and hope I could find answers to my concerns when it arrives.So the theory is, that maximum was excused a few mos ago I thought. That said, apply for another OWP a few days before your current expires. Technically you should be able to work under implied status until they pass a judgement.
If you're landed by then, cancel and get a refund.
If not, they are supposed to extend, as long as you meet other admissibility concerns...
