Thanks a lot. Did you actually apply for the owp? The processing time for that will depend on if you've already applied or not. I'll assume you did when you sent your restoration or PR, yes? In that case, the owp should be granted somewhat soon since you're now in-status.

I checked the restore as a worker box. Since you are applying to work, it would make sense that when your status is restored, it is as a worker. But I am not 100% certain on how they will treat it. I would do that and then also pay the separate restoration fee. Turned out I didn't need...

It would make sense for them to issue it once restoration was given. Because you sent it on implied status, which they are adamant about being a legitimate status. The question is how long it will take to get restoration. But another update on my timeline, my OWP was finally granted to me after...

Also still don't have OWP as a March 11 applicant. I called about a week ago and it turns out they had me listed as having applied out-of-status, even though I applied for an extension before my status ran out. That was llike...the whole point of me applying for the extension in the first place...

I wouldn't take that bet. I would provide them again if I were you just to be safe. They don't hold your spot in line if they sent your application back, so they would have no reason to save a few parts of your application. I would guess it was a mistake on their part. Definitely include...

You definitely should apply to restore, and to piggyback off of what canuck78 said you should apply for the open work permit as well. I recommend doing it on the same form as I have done, but if you still have any doubts then I would file a restoration the way that the website recommends, and...

Yes, this is the option the agent told me to check. I originally saw that the same way you did, but the agent informed me that can be used since technically we do want status restored, but as a worker this time. I can imagine it would make less sense for them to go through the hassle of...

Sorry if I misunderstood this part of your post, but applying for extension is different than restoring status. Are you out of status currently? If so, did you apply for an extension before it ran out? If you did then you won't need to restore. I don't see why he wouldn't want you to apply for...

Just to add my insight, and in case your earlier question didn't get answered, I am pretty positive that restoration is its own separate $200. Also, I was instructed by agents from months ago that I could apply for restoration at the same time, on the same form, as my work permit, which I've...

My visitors extension was actually approved. That should mean I was technically in status when I applied, so hopefully processing of my owp has started and I receive it soon. I have not received it yet though, which is worrying me a little, but I guess it will come when it comes My visitor...

Somewhat of an update to this post here... I tried to apply for Alberta Healthcare with the Visitor permit that was mailed to me, and it was denied because the visitor permit has less than 6 months on its its validity status. It has from May to August, even though I applied for it in January...

This was partially answered already in another thread, but I figured I'd get some more opinions on my situation. I submitted my PR+OWP on implied status, after my visitor status expired but I applied for visitors extension beforehand. The extension was approved several months after applying for...

Thanks for your answers. However, he did not speak as if this applied to being out of status or on implied status. He spoke of it as a general rule. To answer your questions, I did send the applications during implied status from my visitors extension (March 11), however my visitors extension...

So I'm a March 11th applicant who hasn't had OWP approval yet. I actually called IRCC to answer a certain question I had, and during the conversation the agent informed me that the OWP is given when AIP is given on the PR application... What? I am absolutely certain that is false. It really...

I know I may be jumping the gun here a little bit because the processing time is 3-5 months, but seeing that others who have submitted their inland PR+OWP applications after have mine already had their OWP's granted, I've become a little nervous about what's going on. I try to tell myself that...

Whereas I'm the opposite, got my medical request but no OWP. I wonder if maybe my unusual situation might be delaying it (I submitted it after my original status ran out along with restoration of status, even though I applied for a visitor extension by paper which I have still not heard back from)

Still have not received OWP yet as a March 11 applicant. I know we aren't supposed to compare our cases to others in regards to timeline, but it's a little disheartening that we've still heard nothing about it yet

App Received on March 11 (Not 14 as I previously posted) AOR received April 25 Medical request received May 9 Still no OWP yet, which is making me nervous because other people who've sent theirs in after me have reported them. Hopefully soon enough.

Just to be clear, the OWP comes up as "Online Application" when you link it, correct? I just linked what I think it is since I put in my own (principal applicant) UCI and info when linking, but I'm getting Online Application as the name of the app. Also getting that they received it on March 4...

It sounds like since you sent yours in after the February checklist update, you needed to provide the nee checklist and PC upfront since that's what the checklist states. They forgive people who sent theirs before the February update. For example, someone who sent it in January would get...
