Hi, This is my timeline:
April 18: Work Permit Paper Application Submitted via VFS Manila-Philippines (with LMIA, including passport, without upfront medical, with police certs etc - my NOC 2175)
April 30: Request for medical Exam
May 2: Medical Exam Done
May 6: Medical Results Submitted Online
May 18: Work Permit Approved 2 Years (They sent an email Work Permit Approval letter which will i bring to the port of entry/immigration)
Currently: Waiting for passport(with TRV visa stamped) to be returned to me this coming week
Maybe they are still doing some background check for you guys. They will for sure email what is needed etc. Goodluck and all the best to you..
