Great news! My OWP was approved today. I was Dec 12 applicant. After many calls, today my status was finally updated and the application approved. It took almost 5 months. If anyone else is still waiting from Dec, you will get it really soon!

Thank you! I am sorry to hear that you’re going through this too! It is frustrating because like you said the reviewing of eligibility after almost 5 months hasn’t even started and I really don’t know what is wrong and why is like that, because no news from cic after linking the app. I wish all...

Dec 12, still waiting. I have been calling them every week since 4 months mark and no update. They sent email to cic but the last time I called, on Friday, no news. I will just keep calling them every week and hopefully one day is approved, it will be 5 months next week.

Dec 12, still waiting. I called two times this week, they confirmed that application is in Mississauga and that I just have to wait. Today agent also told me that because I can continue working on implied status my application is not really urgent. However it’s been more than 4 months and still...

Great to hear! Congrats! Thank you for letting us know. Hopefully soon for us who are still waiting too!

I am very sorry to hear that you had that experiance but at the same time so happy it turned out well for you! It is just unbelievable that they are sometimes so careless and sloppy and that agents just give you scripted answers without even checking individual situation. I think the good sign...

The same for me, Dec 12. I really don’t know what is happening! I was sure that the delay could be just maybe for a week or two, but there hasn’t been any news at all. The last time I called they confirmed that they sent an email to Mississauga and that I just have to wait. After I linked the...

Still waiting, Dec 12. I called CIC on Friday and the agent said they sent an email to Mississauga and I just have to wait. The agent also confirmed and explained to me that since I applied for the OWP before my expiry date of the current permit, i can continue working on implied status until...

I am still waiting too, Dec 12. I checked my application status today through CIC phone self service and it was said that they are processing applications received Nov 17. However, I saw people receiving OWP who applied in Dec and Jan. I think we are somehow unlucky and they are processing some...

Thank you for letting me know! I will call them tomorrow morning and ask the same. I really really hope we get it soon!

Yes I did a day after AOR in January. When I called CIC I gave the agent my application number for OWP and she told me she sees my application. Everything looks fine, I also paid the right fees, I had status when applied, attached all the required documents and checklist, connected to my online...

No, I am on my study permit, It expires on Apr 30th but I completed my study program more than a week ago. I called CIC and asked if maybe OWP and study permit are excluding each other and maybe they are waiting for study permit to end, but the agent told me that’s not the case and I should get...

Any December 11 applicants still waiting for OWP? I am December 12 and still haven’t received anything. Tomorrow will be exactly 4 months according to the CIC online profile and still no changes.

Hi there, I am Dec 12 and I am still waiting, too! I got my AOR on Jan 25 and I linked OWP online a day after AOR but haven’t seen any changes for OWP since. I called CIC last week and the agent told me I should wait until first week of April and I should get it before Apr 5. Finger crossed!
