Hello folks,

I have applied for the BOWP in July 22 2024 (6 months since submission, PVO Edmonton, 179 days) and haven't heard anything from IRRC. the current processing time now is 146 days
Can we use this thread to gather whom have applied for the WP in the past and haven't heard from them so we can keep track?

Hello,

I have received the approval letter for my open work permit from IRCC. My question is: how long will it take for the physical document to be sent to my address? I would appreciate your opinion. Thank you.
