My passport is valid until November 2018, and they issued work permit until October 2017. But I`m hoping to get my PR by then anyways! :)
I just hope they would not based it on the passport that i sent.

Hi,
You can give them a call if you don't here from them after next week. I didn't get an email confirming receipt of my application from CIC till almost 2weeks after. But as long as the courier confirmed delivery, rest easy and give them a little time before calling.
I'm sure you'll hear from them soon.
Cheers:)


And a big CONGRATULATIONS to everyone that got their OWP. For those of us still waiting, ours is on the way:)
Have a blessed weekend everyone:)

Hi Everyone,
Please a quick question. I have sent in my application for PR and OWP. While waiting for the OWP, im still working for my same employer and would like to go on vacation to the US. My question is, do i need to first apply for a TRV to access re-entry back into canada, and then apply for a US visa separately? Or can i just apply for a US visa only.
My second question is, what's the longest time i can take for a vacation? I know the LIC contract usually states 2 weeks, but is it possible to go away for a month if i get a letter from my employer stating the extended vacation time?

Thanks for your help.
Cheers:)

You don't need a TRV in coming back to canada from U.S as long as your work permit is current or not expiring soon when you do your travel. But in crossing the border going to u.s you will need a U.S visa. Letter confirming you have a job when you return to canada will be helpful but I don't think border officer will ask for it as long as your work permit and passport are current until the time you come back. But in case this will be handy. :) read some forum titled "trv" in this site, you might get new information as well.

oh yeah thats one of my concern thanks for addressing it, actually mine will expire june 2014 but i already submitted my application however i did renew my passport what to do now? thanks appreciated

They always based on the passport if you renewed it the longest owp is 4 yrs if not they will give you based on the date on your passport if it is only few months left they will issue you on that lenght that is why better to renew it save time save money.
