Hi everyone,

Is there anyway to identify status of my work permit application. Apparently, my application was submitted online by Canadian lawyers on behalf of future employer. Application was supported by LMIA and CAQ. They just shared a confirmation letter and the application number starting with W********.

I'm currently staying in England so I believe they must have filed my application to IRCC in London. What worries me is total black box and not being able to check status of my own application. Is there anyone else in same boat?

Following up on my earlier post today, I have update to share.

I received an email from my lawyer just now that CIC has requested my passport. He has sent me PPR letter. Below is my timeline :-

Application submitted :- 30th Nov 2017
Application Received :- 1st Dec 2017
PPR :- 6th Dec 2017 (Lawyer shared letter today)
Visa office :- London

My work permit application was not ICT, instead it was full time permanent job offer from Canadian employer supported by LMIA and CAQ. I'll submit my passport to CVAC in London tomorrow. :)

I have something to share regarding your queries ....
1. IRCC do’t go anywhere physically to check for wprk experience of candidates .....there preferred method of contact is by phone call or by mail.
2. Your same IELTS score is valid as you submitted your application well before expiry date .
I hope it help.

hello all,
Is it worth hiring a consultant to process your work permit application when you already have a positive LMIA and a job offer?

My son received an email from the employer's consultant about the service fee to continue the processing of his work permit but it was way too much thinking that work permit application is only $155 if I am not mistaken.

any input please
Thanks
