Sorry you submitted your new renewed passport? Not sure I understood this. You haven't received a PPR yet right?
yes. correct. I have applied again this year using new passport, earlier workpermit i could not go due to covid restrictions and passport was near expiry.
Ok and your old permit expired? It is usually granted for 3 years right? Just making sure your new application is not conflicting with the old one
i got it for a year, since my passport got expired. also, had to reapply on new role
I have got my visa approved finally! Looks like the system is down, so waiting for attorney to share the PPR with me.

Congrats. If your visa expires next week and it takes 8-10 days for the passport to come back to you after stamping, do you risk overstaying? I might be in a similar situation and wanted to know if overstaying by 2-3 days is okay
My visa expires on the 14th buy my i94 is valid for an additional 10 days. I am hoping I would get the passport before that. My employer has informed me that I wont be on US payroll after the 14th. I think its prefect timing and I wont have to overstay. My friend recently moved to Ontario and he overstayed for about a week past his i94. If you have your visa approved I think its worth the risk, otherwise I would leave on i94 expiry.
I got approval on last Thursday night, sent my passports to LA on Friday, hoping to get back them by Thursday. My visa expires on nov 7th and I plan to leave on 6th. Am hoping everything will work like clockwork. My lawyers suggested I apply for B-1 and change of status to buy time if I need. Basically, nothing will happen and I can’t work but I won’t go out of status. If needed, this might be something you can look into.
