ICT Work Permit (GSS) India Timelines

[wpkc]

How do we get notified if we get PPR and is the time when you get notified is in indian hours or canadian hours.

You may get email during Canadian working hours

Direct flights are starting from 26th.
But can someone suggest , what are the indirect route options? Thanks

I read somewhere that you can find a country, in which direct flight from India is allowed and from which direct flight to Canada is allowed. Once you land in that country, you will need to obtain Covid negative report before 72 hours from your scheduled flight to Canada. For this you may need to stay in that country for 3-5 days. If your report is Covid positive, then you cannot travel to any other country. You will have to take medication and stay quarantine in that country for atleast 14 days and until your next report is Covid negative. You need to satisfy all the travel requirements before your jouney. Then you can board into the flight to Canada if approved.
People have suggested not to do this until and unless its very urgent as this is complex and expensive process and also, its not guaranteed that you will be allowed to aboard if not an emergency
Please check on different blogs to find more info

Hi
I'm actually a bit confused about the work permit, is it that do I have to get the offer letter from the employers first or how am I supposed to apply for a work permit because the employers says they required a work permit first in order to apply for a job and the government says they need a valid job offer from the employers.
What's the right thing to do

Your employer should give you the offer letter so that either your employer or you may proceed with applying for the ICT work permit application

If you applied for an open work permit, then you need a work permit in your hand first, then go to canada and find a job.

Is this from India ?

No PPRs this week ?

No PPRs this week ?

Seems like that. I had my biometric on 26th August. Considering people with biometric done on 20th August received PPR last week, I am hoping that this week I get PPR. But nothing yet.

My employer’s consultant helped me to get it done. I didn’t book it by myself. He booked it on my behalf.
