ICT or Work Permit processing Timelines 2024

[RAD0707]

Hi All,

Please share some insight if you have experience.
I am trying to gather some idea on the timelines for the Work Permit Processing under ICT.

Work Permit application (LMIA Exempt - ICT): Applied on 14 March 2024
Biometrics: 21 March 2024
Country of application: India

Would really appreciate if I can get some guidance. How long will it take?

Thanks.

Oh Alright. Thanks for sharing.
I am getting the responses from checking various portals and people who got it before. All in All, 2 months from Application to Passport stamping.
Your case is already 1 month from Biometrics.
My case is applied under GSS. Is yours also under Global Skills Strategy ICT? yours is from India as well?
(my employer's immigration agent told me that it is applied under GSS for 2 weeks urgent approvals, but it depends on the Immigration officer's discretion)
Your application is 10 days prior to mine. All the best.

It is in GSS ICT from US.

I don’t have information regarding the ICT work permit specifically but if you’re looking at Closed Work Permits in general - there’s over a dozen cases you can reference here for the timelines: https://myimmitracker.com/en/ca/trackers/consolidated-work-permits-tracker

It doesn’t look like they’re moving too quickly though… minimum 3-4 months processing time from what I can tell

keep us posted if someone got approved recently
