I'm in your same situation 125 days that were sent and 65 days in the d.i.p and we can only wait another 2 weeks we have already lost hope.
How long does it take for OINP to go from "Decision In Progress" to "Approved/Rejected" status?

- Start date
Hello David,
As per my consultant, they are taking around 6 months from submission date to approve. I'm already 152 from submission and 68 from DIP. My permit is expiring in July/2025. I still have time... However, I'm getting very anxious and frustrated...
One guy received an approval today, from August draw.

NOI: August 15
Submitted: August 18
DIP: September 19
Intent to Refuse: Jan 17 (4 months in DIP and he got the intend to refuse. That's unbelievable)
Employer responded: February 1
Approval: February 7
