Hello!

I need some advice with regards to my PR and Open work permit application. I applied for renewal of my Passport on March then submitted my application for PR and open work permit on April. The new Passport will arrive around July or August which is not a problem since my old passport will expire October. The problem is with my PR and open work permit application. I submitted it on paper form and currently on the website it will take more than 100 days for the work permit and 44 months for the PR. I am worried that this will actually pose a problem with my stay here. I did read about the implied status info but I still have a few concerns:

1. Since I will have a new passport, what or who should I contact to let them know about the new expiry on the PR application? Should I submit an pay for a new application package again?

2. What if my work permit has already expired while I am waiting for my PR/work permit application to be processed?

I hope someone would be able to clarify to me on what I should do.

Thank you
