My WP (ICT WP, LMIA Exempted) took 20 weeks to be processed. Applied end of Aug 2016 and received mid of Jan 2017.
Applied originally at Canadian High Commission in India (our lawyers thought process will be faster lol) (9 weeks from India, 39 weeks from UAE avg processing time)
Received WP approval through Canadian Embassy in Abu Dhabi, UAE
hi,

did you mean that even while you were currently in UAE, you could apply from india it was faster than those processing times if it was applied from UAE?

Yes application was submitted in India.
Thought was it will be faster processing from India 11 weeks compared to 39 weeks from UAE.
But ultimately if I count the number of weeks it as almost after 19 weeks I got my WP process completed

For overseas candidates it will be very difficult to get WP unless your UAE company has a branch in Canada and they are willing to transfer you to this Canadian entity. Then in that case you can get a WP which LMiA exempted(conditions apply)

My WP was applied using NOC 0124
