CEC Applicants - Jan 2020 *JOIN HERE*

I believe CIC is not going to close any applications during this crisis. So dont expect any updates.
This is a request to help me or provide proper guidance please?
I am having one year Canadian experience and my closed work permit will expire in July 2020. I haven't got enough score in IELTS (not 6 in all) to submit and create EE profile. IELTS test centers are closed until first week of May so I cannot improve my score for next one month.
Many people suggested to submit AINP application via paper based and get nomination letter to extend or apply Bridging open work permit. I heard it takes 12 - 18 months to get nomination letter via paper based application. Also, if I choose paper based AINP then I should submit PR application via paper based only. Can I extend/apply work permit using AINP file number? If yes, what are the changes of getting approved?
Do you think is there any way/process to extend my work permit other than getting new LMIA from employer at this stage?
do you think they are still processing though? I have completed all my requirements and am just waiting and my last 15 weeks.
The process is ongoing, but they will not close or refuse the application. Hence, any updates are unlikely
My PGWP expires June 19th. So this means I really have to file an extension? I was hoping I wouldn't have to file as I thought my PR will be finalized before. Too bad, waste of money. Thank you!
I did it few weeks ago during the lockdown. my AOR is Jan 28. They said background check is not started, and eligibility is not started.... I guess we won't get it very fast.
Hi Guys
Hope you are all safe client support center is open again.
I requested status update yesterday thru webform and my status for ADR changed from not applicable to we are reviewing the additional documents you provided. I think webform triggers them and they will look at your application. I might be wrong but just my opinion.
have a great day you guys.

What's your AOR, Medical passed date, and Biometrics date? I'd like to see if we are similar. My Medical is Feb 10 and Biometrics Feb 18.
