This letter refers to your application for a work permit. Your application has been transferred to the Canada Immigration Centre located in Etobicoke for processing. The Canada Immigration Centre will be contacting you with further instructions in due course. Passports for yourself and your family members must be valid for the duration of your stay in Canada

I got this letter after 4 months of applying for work permit.

Any ideas of what next ?

A work permit app being transferred to a local office is generally a sign that IRCC had an issue with the app that needs further investigation.

What is your current status? On what grounds did you apply for an OWP?

Thanks for your reply.
I have completed my 1-year Diploma Program & applied for a Post Graduation Work permit. (OWP)

When you say investigation, does it mean do I have to attend for an interview?

Is it possible for me to go to Windsor IRCC and request for Work permit?

You may be called for an interview.

No, you should not try a border run.
