INLAND APPLICATIONS 2014

Its so frustrating to see all these May/June 2014 Applicants who have already received their OWP under this new program.
I think anyone that was involved in the Vegreville to Mississauga transfer has been screwed over.

According to my MP's office the pilot program is a bandaid on a problem they're trying to fix with something more legitimate.
Logically, it makes no sense that anyone applying for Inland Sponsorship would *need* to file for an OWP, baring information from this forum. OWP is supposed to result from the sponsorship process anyway, and all the information on the OWP application is duplicated on the Inland Sponsorship application. Everyone filing for sponsorship eventually gets OWP, so why is an extra application needed?
I was honestly surprised when I learned that people applied for OWP along with Sponsorship because my understanding was that we'd get the OWP through sponsorship anyway.
The short answer is that their process is so barbaric that they actually need the information put onto a different form so they can physically separate processing of the OWP from the sponsorship processing.
My speculation is that they're not going to bother with sponsorship for a while, and will be devoting all effort to this pilot program.
I just spoke to a CIC agent this morning.
She gave me good news and bad news.
The good news: my OWP was mailed last Friday
The bad news: They only give me untill October 2015 because my old passport expired the same time.
I have sent them a copy of the new passport in December, Canada Post confirmed that it's been received and signed by CIC however the call centre agent said she couldn't see it.
I am not sure what to do now. Should I fax CIC and make a fuss or should I just let it go and extend again 1 month before the expiry date in October.
Need advice from forum eldes. Thanks in advance.

They need to seriously process all of the existing inventory first before they start on the newer ones. fs

Maybe...just maybe, CIC is deferring OWP for the `older' applications, because they are close to issuing AIP (and perhaps DM as well).
It wouldn't make sense for them to send out an OWP, under their pilot program, to those that are so close to the end.

Can someone please confirm what documents need to be sent with the OWP application under the pilot. Other than the actual application form and receipt of payment, is there anything else that needs to be sent?

Your theory doesn't make sense to me. CIC charged the fee for OWP so they should process it no matter how far or how close a file to AIP. And even at AIP stage, the file can still be referred to local office for further investigation and that would add years of waiting. The OWP will be issued on AOR to all eligible files regardless of how long it would take to grant AIP.
