you can change address on IRCC. However there is no guarantee that it will be sent to the new address.
It's best that you get it before you move, but there is very limited things that you can do.

You can also set up mail forwarding with Canada Post.
I am not concerned about mail forwarding, I am concerned about the lease I signed, my lease begins on July 1st 2022 until that I need to get the work permit extension approval, If I dont get it then I wont be able to move outside the province (which will be a loss for me financially)

Between now and july 1st there are still 2 months.

Try to contact the local MP as I replied before. Since this is outside processing time, you have a valid reason to complain.

Question:
Would it be wise to withdraw my current application only to reapply through SAU?

Taking into consideration that two of my friends applied and got it through SAU within five weeks... and my application has been ongoing through the States now for almost +3 months, and nothing has changed on the website since Feb/17/2022.. and that my job requires me to be there on the 2nd week of June.

Your thoughts are highly appreciated.

Thank you

Hi I was thinking of the same thing, is it? Anyone who has withdrawn the application? Apply from a different country, like mine was first submitted from Bahrain and nothing happened for about 4 months. Plus the processing weeks keep on changing, from 13 weeks, to 18 weeks to 75 weeks. But from the Philippines where I am originally from will only take 18 weeks as of now.

Please advise.
