Hello Malik87,

By the way any updates or approved WP between month of August and September 2018 here? Please share us your timeline.
Do you know if it’s possible to apply work permit without Lmia?? Like an open workpermit?

Thank you for your prompt response. But are u still here in UAE or u eventually left UaE and planned to exit in Phil?
Because I got the visa stamped from Canadian Embassy in Abu Dhabi. The file was shifted in the last week when I got request to submit my passport.
Application was originally submitted submitted to the Canadian High Commission in India
So my WP application was processed way back in 2016-2017 time frame.
My lawyers opted to submit my application to Canadian High commission in India since they saw that the work permit processing time was 9 weeks in comparison to the processing time of 39 weeks if they submit to the Canadian Embassy in Abu Dhabi.
So they submitted my application on 31 Aug 2016 (in India) and I received request for the passport submission on 16 Jan 2017(at Abu Dhabi). One week before 16 Jan 2017, lawyers told me that my application has been transferred to Abu Dhabi for the finalization of my WP application.
If I look back now as to why it took so long for me. I believe it would have been because of security check or screening for me (because recently for my PR application it also took around 10 months for the application to be completed)
What I used to do was to keep following up with my lawyers who were appointed by my organization in Canada.
It’s a matter of few more weeks you application will be completed and you will receive the request for passport. Have patience my friend. Till then earn some tax free money in DXB
