Hi,

I applied on June 12,
Reviewed Oct 2
Approved Oct 3
---
But I have a problem, I studied 1 + 1 but only got a work permit of 1 year.

I studied 1 year post graduate program with three semesters, then I changed school and studied another one year (also post grad, 2 semesters). They were full time programa, none of them has online classes.

I included my transcripts and certificate of both programs. Even a letter saying I was studying at 2 schools

I should be eligible to get a three year work permit? My application was pretty clear already so I don't think reapply will help... What should I do in this situation to fix it?

Thanks.
Hey
Your work permit is issued from backhome or canada ??

Hey guys!
How long does it take for them to get the Webform and to make changes?
I need to change my address and I applied on June 21, do you think I still have time to change my address?
Or should I just have them mail it to the old one?
I'd say change it now. It takes them around one week (5 business days). You'll be notified if they got your address change. I applied for a change too one week ago. Yesterday I got approved but they didn't change my address, but they emailed me which address they send it to.

Will they respond that they received my request via email? I applied on July 9th and I sent a request via webform like 3 weeks ago but I didn’t receive any message from them

They don’t respond.
You better call them to double check.

Hi all,

if you applied within canada, I'm just wondering how much time does it take to receive the hard copy? My company won't allow me to work without the hard copy even though I told them it's approved and gave them the document number...

Hi All, I have submitted my application on May 16th but still no updates. Its really making me nervous as they have started processing the applications which were submitted a month after me.
Wts your file status shows I applied from 18 April and from 2 months file on eligibility review
