Montreal consulate - proof of status

 Share

Hi,

I'm currently living and working in Canada on a work permit which expires in November. My case has left for the Montreal consulate and I have only recently discovered that I will need to prove my status in Canada in order to proceed.

 

In order to keep status in Canada I have applied for PR which gives me the right to apply for a work extension, both of which will take 4 months to process. Once my current work permit is up I will be on implied status which allows me to keep my current status however this is just implied and I dont have an actual document or new work permit that explains / states this. 

 

My question is:

- has anybody been in this situation before where you have had to prove implied status and if so how have you done this?

- would I be better off requesting a transfer to my home country and proceeding that way? If so, what are the delays involved?

 

Thanks so much!

Hey P&E, thanks for posting this question here. I was wondering if you were able to expedite your case at Montreal consulate? Have you tried to contact NVC or the consulate?

I'm in the same boat pretty much. I didn't expect my case would take so long to approve and by checking the trend I anticipate that there would be a long wait before my interview on 2020. I'm worried that it will delay to the point that my work permit has expired. Please let me know if any updates on your case. Any information would be greatly appreciated. Thank you and good luck on your case!
