Guys, especially LY, I want to send in the open work permit. Do I need to have everything on the document checklist at this link?

http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/applications/extend-worker.asp

Remember, I have already sent in the main application.
Angtao - I have been wondering this same thing as well. I wasn't aware that I had to send it in with my PR app, so obviously I didn’t and now feel a bit stuck. What advice have you received on this? Can you please keep me updated on how you go? Please :D

Congratulations Lemony_20, AmandaHsu & Tozo!!!!

Can someone pls confirm for me: If I extend my stay in Canada as a visitor only (currently on work permit that expires May 25.12) then a few months later get AIP - can I then apply for an OWP - Is that how it works? Or do I have to stay as a visitor till I get my PR card?

No, it didn't change.

As I mentioned before, I called CIC and used their auto system then I found out that my sponsor's status has changed from nothing to "we received ur application" but my part hasn't changed.

This morning, lemony_20 told me she got the news about her AIP via call center so I decided to call since my app was received 2 days later than hers. That's why I got the answer, and until now, no matter Ecas or auto system has not updated anything and the lady from call center told me that it may be updated later.

So, I'll strongly suggest you to call CIC instead of waiting/checking. I believe you'll get good news too.

Angus, I will definitely keep you posted. That document checklist for the open work permit is long and I already sent in all that stuff with the PR app. I feel like this is never ending. I wish the guy that we hired had sent in the Open Work Permit from the beginning.

I am not 100% sure but I think you can remain working at the same job even if your work permit expires. Can someone confirm?

Angtao,i had the same problem ,work permit expired on the sept 15,2011 but i send in the application for the renewal or extension and they received it on the august 12,2011 so i can still be working at the same since its now implied status until i get the extension.....but i just got my AIP the same day my work permit expired......so just send in the OWP before its get expired else you cant be an implied status .hope this help you clear your doubt.good luck.

Hi, guys. So glad to see you guys got good news..... and congratulations!!! LY!! that you found a good job!! and also thx for the chart updating!!!

I have been freaking out lately by waiting for the 2nd stage. I just feel so sad and unsecured everyday!!!........

TO LY: I have a question:

1. I just called CIC couple days ago, they said i should hear something by March next year (i got my aip on july 4). so

will it actually be taking that long?????

2. about my medical tests, my story is that i was originally planning send in my case outland which is beijing and i did my medical according to that.

but eventually i send inland (because my visa was about to be expired). so i guess thats why there was no"medical results have been received" on

Ecas. so my question is where my medical is now?? can i do anything about it??

thx guys......
