got a positive LMIA/CAQ (not duel intent) - applying for closed work permit. quebec.
1. how long does this process take on average?
2. I have seen people get their CWP refused with positive LMIA, how likely is this to happen? are there particular reasons for it?
3. Can i apply for a TRV on the basis of a submission of a CWP, with positive LMIA and CAQ in the application ?
 
1. Are you in Canada or not? If in Canada what is your status?
2. Depends on your job experience, education and language skills. You are proving that no Canadian can do the job.

1. Current processing is over 200 days.
2. There is always a chance of refusal.
3. You can apply for a TRV on a PGWP.

3. pgwp expires in october so if i apply now will i get it beyond that date? i have a trv right now that expires at the same time as the pgwp. so I’m wondering about the visa to apply for if i want to travel after october and return to canada, provided I have approval for Cwp.

You'll have to wait for an approved work permit before applying for TRV.

Realistically October travel may not be possible. Unless you have your new WP you would be on implied status so if you left Canada you could not return and work.
