Hi all,

right now I am stuck at biometrics of LMIA exempt work permit.My lawyer also said that recently IRCC are not really processing regular work permits. I should be able to provide fingerprints in May when things reopen in the US. When should I expect to get work permit? Normally it takes 3 weeks to get it approved in the US but right now the website says it is no longer accurate.

Any wild ass guess?
Thanks.

3 weeks is just an estimate. Can take longer. Nobody can predict processing times these days.
