Yeah I hope so. But I've applied under new policy. So, don't know when they'll review and accept it. Hope by next week I'll hear some good news from them. Fingers crossed

I applied for mine on the same day and also received my approval for 18 months today. This is the quickest processing time among my experiences with IRCC.
I guess IRCC either prioritized this category or intended to showcase the results of this new policy.

Pls help ... I applied for open work permit extension without AOR ... How can I switch to the public policy work permit for 18months

P.s .. I do not have AOR at the moment as I submitted paper Application for PR .

That's an unfortunate situation.

You have 3 options
a) if your current wp has not expired, you may request to withdraw your wp extension and re-submit another one under the new policy
b) submit a web form to include a letter of explanation that mentions the new policy. But this way is risky because the officer could ignore your letter and could find you are at fault. Then no approval.
c) if you think you will get AOR in 3 months or before IRCC opens your application, you have time to submit a web form to include a letter + your AOR. This is less risky than option b, according to the stories I heard in this forum.
