That’s good to hear. Mine was approved on Wednesday last week, so I’m hopeful I’ll get mine tomorrow.
I’m similar, my AOR was 2nd August, and my OWP was received on 15th June. I had my OWP approved 19th September.
You should be hearing something soon. There was a discussion in this thread last week about how some of the applications received after others have been approved first. The approvals aren’t always in strict chronological order, but they’re generally approved around the same timescales, give or take a few days.
Most people with June submissions are finding their approvals are happening within 3 months. IRCC state it should take around 4 months, so the approvals are coming a little earlier than expected in some cases. Unless 4 months have elapsed, I wouldn’t worry about it. After 4 months you can chase the application up with the IRCC call centre.
Good luck, and be sure to post any questions you may have. This place is full of people happy to help in anyway they can.
I applied for my owp june 6th but it was returned because of insufficient fees. i resent it and they received aug 22nd. Do i have to wait 4 months again ?thanks
It’s generally approved around 4 months from the date IRCC receive the application. So if the application has been returned, the countdown begins again from the date they receive the amended application.
You’re not the only one caught out on the OWP insufficient fees issue, so anyone who’s had this issue before you, and has since had their OWP application approved, will hopefully be able to provide an update on timescales for you. There may be some expedited process for those applications returned, however, IRCC does state that any application returned for any reason will be treated as if the initial application was never submitted. This is how some people lose valid status, as they rely on implied status, but implied status ends when an application is returned. It’s always prudent to extend your visitor status, just as a back up.
Hopefully you won’t have to wait too long. Good luck.
Once your application is having it’s eligibility reviewed, you’ll have a decision made anywhere from a couple of hours, to a couple of days.
My OWP went from the review to approval in the space of 90 minutes. Others have had the eligibility review started on a Friday and then received approval on the following Monday.
Hopefully you’ll have an answer very soon, keep checking your account.
Indeed! I haven’t heard of a single OWP being declined yet, so if you’ve got this far the whole PR application must be in order, and the OWP application is as good as accepted.I'll take any movement over stillness!
It’s not mentioned in the guides on the IRCC website, but there must be a fair amount of background checks already done prior to the OWP being issued. We know that they check the application for completeness, as incomplete ones get returned immediately. But the OWP surely wouldn’t be issued without some assurance of the sponsor being approved, no serious criminality, etc.
I also wonder, if those OWPs processed faster, might be done so because the applicant has previously held a work permit of some kind. I previously had an IEC so, perhaps the processing, once started, goes faster.
Obsessively logging in and out all day, lol. Nothing will get done at home today.
Just approved!
