Time are just estimates and may have not been adjusted after the lockdown.

Hi Rohtak,

Looks like we both are sailing in the same boat.

In my case, i received the biometric validation by the consulate and i am still waiting for my work permit' approval.

Unfortunately, the opening of the US Canada border has been extended till next month july21.

Thanks for reply.
When did you apply your Work Permit and for which category ?
Regarding US-CAN border restrictions- Work Permit holders can still go to Canada from US. See below
