hi all

I hired a consultancy company to do the paperwork and have submitted the application at the end of April, 2024.

The next step, according to the consultant, is to apply for the work permit in June, 2024.

My questions:
- After applying for the work permit, how long should I expect to receive it, if I file it in June, 2024 as planned?

I was told to expect it by around September or October, 2024, does this sound real? Because from the government website, the SUV generally takes 37 months to process. This seems to contradict with what the consultant stated?

- Suppose the work permit petition is approved, once I got the work permit letter, how soon should I enter Canada?

Thanks, appreciate your feedback
Did your consultant clarify if the shorter timeline refers only to the work permit, not the full SUV PR process? Also, have they explained the urgency or deadline for entering Canada once the work permit is issued?
