Thank you so much for your well detailed answer, you really helped me a lot!
I have a question... Do we need to upload an updated recent digital photo? I don't have a new one, I have a very old one, will we use it in the work permit final paper?

I would suggest not to upload a very old picture. Better to get a new one.

I applied for my work permit extension under a protected person. & I submitted my PR application too in May 2023.

I received the latter for biometrics under my WP extension. Is this normal? Because I haven't seen anybody here talking about this.

Also, another problem is during the WP extension process. I submitted my passport scan copy, and in biometrics, they are asking to bring a passport or refugee travel document. So is it ok to bring my refugee claimant ID with passport copies for biometric?

Hi everyone,

I have a quick question, I'm a protected person and my open work permit is about to expire next month, I have applied for an extension online last week, and I was wondering how long does it take usually to be approved? If anyone has experience with this I'd love to know the timeline.

Thanks a lot in advance
