Guys,

looks like the moratorium on Food Industry is lifted already....well since Friday....my application status says: "Your processed passport has been dispatched from the Canada Visa Office RIYADH, on 25/06/2014 to the Canada Visa Application Centre"

and I received an email from the Canadian Embassy today with UCI and Application Number, and attachment which says: "Your application to study or work in Canada has been approved."

Thank God !!!

Guys,

Just want to share with you, especially those who's applying in Restaurant Industry. My employer Tim Horton's in her email says:

" Hello Everyone,

Happy Canada Day!! (July 1, 2014)

We have great news!!!!

I have received confirmation from Employment and Social Development Canada that:

"If a work permit application was submitted within the validity period of the LMO, but the LMO is now expired, only that work permit application will be processed by CIC."

Therefore, we can still proceed with your application to come to Canada "

Hi Rabin, If you're applying for the restaurant industry, as my employer says: "If a work permit application was submitted within the validity period of the LMO, but the LMO is now expired, only that work permit application will be processed by CIC."

I submitted mine Feb 21, which expired Feb 28, but still went thru smoothly, so you might probably have it by August...

did you file it yourself? thru VFS? you should receive an email from the embassy as to what happened to your application....

Regarding the moratorium on Food Industry, it was already lifted and as per my employer Tim Horton's, applications will still be processed so long as your application was submitted prior to expiration of the LMO. When I saw my status in VFS saying my passport has been dispatched, I also receive an email from the embassy stating the approval of my application, thus I know right away that my visa is approved, well, I submitted my passport together with my application..
