I applied from within Canada for a work extension on June 5th, I got a decision on August 18th.
My lawyer said. we applied for WP to cic but they considered you in PR so they will provide me the IT in few days.

is this true ? since 2 weeks i cant get access to my ECAS too.

I have applied for Spouse open work permit on July 15th online and She also did her medical on Aug 12th and also we uploaded the medical in IRCC Webform and I am guessing our visa office is New Delhi since then there is no update at all not even her medical is not updated in the application area. I hope to hear suggestion from seniors in this group.:)

Based on the updates I have been following in the forum seems IRCC is still processing application from last week of June . So you will probably need to wait a couple of more weeks

NOC :
1123 - Professional occupations in advertising, marketing and public relations
British columbia

I am from India. and I have the same profile as you have ( Professional occupations in advertising, marketing, and public relations ). I have 7+ years of experience and working in Indian company as Manager/CEO level. Can you guide me what should i do to get LMIA? I have a client who agree to do this process. but don't know how to proceed. As he said in this occupation (rofessional occupations in advertising, marketing, and public relations may easily get local. So tough to get LMIA approval. But, we can try.

Did you take IELTS? How much scores required?

Awaiting for your reply.

Thanks
Darhan
