So confusing i need your urgent help regarding extension of WP and restoration

[sarah cunanan]

Why are you waiting for your new WP before applying PR. This is what you can do but it's up to you. If you are ready to send your PR application, you can write something like" I have already requested restoration of my status and paid a $200 restoration fee.” Then, depending on how cautious you want to be, you can either

1) pay the $200 fee again (to avoid CIC asking for it, which might cause 
delays and complications on your wP) include that receipt and 
write “I have included an additional restoration fee with this new application just in case, but I would like to request a refund of the restoration fee payment that CIC does not use”
or
2) you can just include a copy of the restoration fee receipt that you used 
on your WP application and write “I have included a copy of the receipt that I used to pay the $200 restoration fee on my WP application.

Hi Sarah,

Yes i did pay my restoration of status because my work permit was expired already, i paid 350 dollars with my extension of work permit and restoration, the call center had advised me to wait for the new work permit if approved, so i can go on my OWP and PR application and submit as soon as possible, I am so worried and its stressful, What do you think are my chances getting restored my status and extension with the same employer?i had provided all the required documents, and i wrote an explanation letter why i had committed the offence..do you have any idea how long it will take the processing for restoration and extension of work permit which i had submitted online application?thanks again, i appreciate your thoughts and enlighten me a lil bit, but still worried .thanks

 @ nylana23- I don't really see why they will not approve you. If you give them all the right documents nothing to worry. Like Joyce said 51 days since you did it online.but if you need more help or need legal advice you can call the lcp organizations I am telling you.
