Pre-Assessed..
Hi:

I have applied for a CLOSED WP with my employer on February 18, 2015. I have not received any reply from the CIC Work Permit department.
my question is What category do fall under WP.......

1) Work Permit Extension (new employer)?
2) Work Permit Extension (same employer)?

My PGWP (Post-Graduation Work Permit) is going to expire on June 11, 2015.Today called to CIC agent and she said that it will take another month to get a decision.it's most likely that i will not have any response from CIC before my PGWP expires, Since they are very busy with Ton's of applications.

What would be my options if my Closed work permit get refused?
Do i have to leave Canada or I can go to Border to apply a closed work permit. I have a TRV which is valid until June 30, 2018.

If any body has gone through same situation please kindly reply.

You can't go to next step without uploading all the documents. Just upload a word file stating your Application# UCI, DOB and upload it.
