It's fairly new. The last person I read about it took approx. 45 days.
 
I was advised by a cic agent that the process of the application can take around 2-3 months or less if you apply online. Paper applications take longer.
 
Hey jsm, you said within 4 months of the current permit expiring! How about if i have closed work permit and will expire next year, Can i apply for owp as soon i recieve AOR or i have to wait 4 months before my closed WP expire? Or the 4 months rule apply only if u currently have owp not closed wp?
