Amended work permit might be lost by mail

[lhyyym]

Hi Seniors,

Since the occupation item in my wife's work permit is wrong, she mailed her work permit to CIC to request amending in March of 2015. But, 4 months passed, she still has not received the amended work permit. We suspect it might be lost by mail.

Thus, what could we do now? Could CIC mail us a new work permit if we call them? Or, we have to pay $30 and request replacement of the work permit? If so, do we have to call 911 to get a police report number before submitting the request of replacement?

Thanks a lot!

Don't call 911 - this number is only for emergencies. You actually don't need to report this to the police at all.

Have you tried calling CIC to ask if the corrected work permit has been mailed? That's where I would start.
