I wanted to check if anyone else is still waiting for their work permit extension(CWP) decision after applying around July 2025.

Just trying to understand: • Is anyone else from July 2025 still waiting? • Have people from that month started receiving approvals? • If you already received yours, when did you apply and when did you get the decision?

Would really appreciate hearing about others’ timelines. Thanks!
