one year pilot open work permit

[lindav]

Hello,

I submitted my permanent resident application in Oct 2013 (Spousal sponsorship), but did not submit an open work permit with the application. I see that CIC has now added a temporary new category to allow processing of open work permits before 'approval in principle' has been granted. I just submitted my open work permit application last week.. does anyone know how long it will take to process??

Thanks!!

According to the CIC Website, it will be processed within 4months. I have submitted mine last week under the same conditions you have. Let's see what happens......
