Hello,

Got this message when i applied for work permit extension but they told me I'm not eligible since they see i already was approved for PR. My Application Tracker still shows "Background check in process" and nothing else has been updated. Didn't receive any e-mail from IRCC inviting me to the PR portal.


This letter refers to your application for temporary resident status in Canada.. Our records now indicate that you have been granted Permanent Residence in Canada. As such, you are no longer eligible for temporary resident status and your application has been withdrawn.

NOTE: This letter does not constitute confirmation of your permanent resident status and is only informing you that we are not satisfied that you meet the requirements of a temporary resident.

Should you not be a permanent resident of Canada and believe that you meet the requirements of temporary resident status, please inform us as soon as possible by:-
Go to : IRCC Web form - Canada.ca- Select “Update or ask about your application”.-
Under the box that says “Other”, click on “See details”.- Click “Continue to form”.-
Choose who you are in relation to this application.-
Enter all of the information.- Under “Tell us about your request”, please first type: “Withdrawal in error.”
And then explain to us why you believe your application was withdrawn in error. Sincerely,

Did any one else ever see something like this? This message was sent to me via the old IRCC portal (where we apply work permits). Should i just wait for the PR e-mail or can this really my a mistake on their part? I am assuming they can internally see i have PR but the bulk invite for PR portals have not gone out yet. I doubt they send one on one e-mails for PR approval. Any hints?

Thank you.
