- can we do inland processing as I still have a work permit good until Nov2015?

Yes, you can.

- if we get married and do inland processing can we go to the Philippines and get married again? Will it affect the inland process and my status as a Foreign Worker?

Leaving Canada is not generally recommended as if you are refused at the border it can lead to a refusal of your application. With a current TRV and WP I wouldn't expect you to have any issues re-entering Canada generally.

- which is the better thing to do? inland or outland despite of my current status in Canada.

How long have you been working in Canada? Do you know the NOC category of your job? Because I recommend CEC for anyone that can qualify for it - you get your work permit in 2 months and your partner doesn't have a sponsorship obligation (and your own PR is not conditional). If the rumoured change comes through for inland OWPs, then you'd be OK with the inland process as well. Outland is faster - you'd probably be done by November 2015, but that's not guaranteed. You could either attempt to extend your work permit, or you could change to visitor status and await the completion of your file. Since you are already in Canada legally, you could also request processing through Ottawa (CPC-O), it doesn't have to be done through Manila.
 
Some fun facts:

February 2013 - Processed in January
March 2013 - Processed in January
April 2013 - Processed in January
May 2013 - Processed in February
June 2013 - Processed in February / March
July 2013 - Processed in March / April / May / June / July / August / September / October
August 2013 - Processed in October / November / December / + ???
 
Hi!

We submit our application November 3, 2014 and CPC-Vegrevillle received it November 4, 2014. Earlier today CIC email me that they received my application already, I just want to ask if this is AOR? Btw, I'm the applicant.

Thank you!

Thank you Nismopinoy!

Thank you Lord! That was fast, I'm expecting my AOR by March based on the timeline because some applicants received their AOR in 4 months. I wish there will be a miracle by next year for all the applicants. ✌️

Now...you have to wonder what they mean by "eligible applicants in the current inventory". I guess that would seem to confirm those that have had AOR for months, but maybe...only some of those?

Either way, a huge improvement!

Yeah, I know, the other worrisome phrase is "to certain spouses or common-law partners". But let's hope they just wanted to be super careful with the wording. We will see it on Monday!

This is the best news ever.. Sophiee can I ask u a question is AOR the one they sent us with a file number starting with F. The applicant only recvd it. I didnt get any the sponsor? Thank u.
 
from Facebook (Eric Laine is in contact with Chris Day)
Eric Laine: UPDATE FROM CIC 5:00 PM ET Saturday: All people with existing spousal sponsorship will be eligible for OWP under the pilot EXCEPT those who applied without the status (out of status people). There will be some basic screening to detect frauds.

Yes, that's it with something like "This confirms that your application to Sponsor a Member of the Family Class has been received by Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC) on YYYY/MM/DD on behalf of the following member(s)..."
I think it doesn't matter if the applicant or the sponsor received it.

sophiee my husband rcvd it he is the applicant and it goes like this this confirms that your application for PR under FCS has been rcvd by CIc on may 7. And it has a F and followed by 9 numbers on top right corner. Do u think it is still aor? And up to now we cant access it in ecas. So worried.

There were a couple months when the applicant received the AOR instead of the sponsor, but that's still an AOR, so I don't believe that it could cause any problem.
