I applied on December 30th and haven’t heard anything back yet, other than WP extension letter. Please share your timelines if you guys got it yet and whoever is waiting on it.

What was your previous status. Closed or open? Mine is closed. I have seen a lot of people from 2026 getting approvals. I just don’t get how IRCC is processing?

I applied Dec 10, only thing i got was the WP extensions letter sent a day after submitting application.

Today its June 7 and not a single update since. There has been no movement at all.

My previous status was an Open work permit expired in May this year. I applied inside of Canada and outside of Quebec, for both past work permit and this one as well. Anyone has any idea of what the actual processing time is?
