That's not for LMIA apps (they're not processed by CIC, which is why I thought you were probably looking at the wrong thing!), it's for Temp Work Permits which is the next step after you've got the LMIA.

There is no published processing time for LMIA's that I'm aware of, but about 12 weeks seems to be the norm.

HTH.

Of course it is, and I knew that too...

(we need a face slap emoji)

Also explains the 10-12 Weeks someone on here posted and the 2-3 months the lawyer told me. I blame sleepless nights and a new baby...

After all that, email today from the team.

It was approved last Thursday but the lead was on Holiday until today...

Just waiting for the official paperwork to arrive at the office (by snail mail I assume)

Yay! Spring in the GTA

Finally landing on Monday @Toronto.

I'm sure I know the answer to this, but can a debit card be used to pay for the TWP etc?

I'll have cash anyway, but if I can my canadian debit card it's just easier.
