lcp owp/pr on process.. still have valid work can i go home?

[sarah cunanan]

my owp and pr application is still on process. 15-16 mos to process and i sent it july 2010. i'm wanting to go back home for a short while while waiting for my owp. there are some personal problems that i have to deal too. would it be a problem? my visa is expired, can someone please give me a link of visa application. ive been searching but most of them are temporary visitor visa or someone who doesn't have a work permit yet. my case is i have a canadian work permit and all i need is a visa to apply to seattle or buffalo before i leave Canada. thanks a lot.

See: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/applications/visa.asp  and you include a copy of your work permit.  They are all the same, you need a TRV.

Follow the links, but submit the documents indicated on the document checklist.

thanks everyone. do you think it will not be a problem since i my owp is on process? it is necessary to type in data directly on the form or i can just print it and write on it?

[job_seeker]

I think the visa offices want the app validated so you have to type directly into the form and then print once it is validated (bar code appears). Anyway if you have a valid Work Permit, a letter form your employer (meaning you are employed), and you have a valid TRV, then there's no reason why the POE officer won't let you enter Canada again.

thanks everyone. do you think it will not be a problem since i my owp is on process? it is necessary to type in data directly on the form or i can just print it and write on it?

[sarah cunanan]

i didn't send the visa application.. anyways, there is someone who name CAMIL in this forum who just got hers.you can pm her and she might help you completing papers too. i think it'll take a month if u apply in seattle. i might be wrong. just check the processing.ciao
