Since you applied from Bahrain, the Bahrain processing time would apply to you.

However due to COVID-19, all work permit processing is unfortunately much slower right now. So unfortunately it's really quite difficult to guess when you may hear back about your work permit application. You can try to send a case specific inquiry via webform to request the status of your application. You may get a helpful answer back. Or they may just send you a standard reply saying that your work permit is under process and they don't know when processing will be completed.

There's always some chance of refusal. An approved LMIA does not guarantee that the work permit will also be approved.

Ok thanks for your suggestions, as if there is refusal should be with in month or 2 month but it's almost 4 and half month to submitted,so just assuming should be positive response .

The length of processing unfortunately isn't an indicator of a positive or negative outcome.

If you feel you are qualified, then the chances of approval should be very high.

Not much you can do but wait.
