I applied in May and got mine in September. So it took 3.5 months, as I said in a previous post.

One can apply for a work permit at any time. The announcement on Aug 25 simply said that one won't have to leave the country then come back to obtain the work permit itself. Since I applied before Aug 25, I wasn't eligible for that and had to go to the border to obtain my work permit.

I applied in May and got it in September, so about 3.5 months total. I did send web form asking for updates and encourage others to order GCMS notes to find out more about their application.

I was a visitor. Turned out I went to the border and they gave me the work permit. Took about an hour total.

I did it via webform. I attached the PDF letter to the webform. I also have seen on previous pages in this thread that you can email IRCC directly at IRCC.COVID-TravelExemptions-Exemptionsdevoyage-COVID.IRCC@cic.gc.ca to ask for expedite, attaching employer's letter.

" If you were eligible to apply for a work permit from within Canada We’ll mail the work permit to the Canadian address you gave us. This also applies if you’re a visitor who applied for a work permit under a temporary public policy. " But in my letter, they did not say they would mail it to...

I did what poppedpluto suggested - see their post from page 27-28. I uploaded the letter requesting expedition from employer, on company letterhead, via webform. I never got any reply. There's no way to tell if it helped speed things up, but no harm in trying.

My partner lives in Canada. But you can ask your employer to do this for you - technically, anyone living in Canada can do it. You just need to fill out and sign a representative form to authorize them to ask on your behalf.

I think I used this link: https://atip-aiprp.apps.gc.ca/atip/welcome.do?lang=en It's pretty standard. Just search in this forum or google GCMS notes. I ordered the notes on Aug 12 and received on Aug 29.

I ordered GCMS notes and got them within 21 days also. The crazy thing is the notes say they asked me for proof of education on August 6. I have never received any email from IRCC, and NOTHING showed up on my account when I log in except for "application submitted." I sent the proof via...

Thank you. I appreciate it. Now the waiting game continues.

Wow this is super helpful. Thank you.

October 2018 applicant here. October 2018 applicant here. I thought I was the only one left. The abuse and neglect by CIC have been absolutely horrendous. We've contacted multiple MPs, called, order notes, submitted multiple webforms, etc. etc. all for nothing. Hilarious enough, this week when...
