If you fall under GSS category (Noc 0,A) its now 80-90 days from Biometrics. If Non GSS - go as per the processing times mentioned on IRCC website but now the processing times have come down.

Hi, I applied for LIMA-exempt work permit from Germany (NOC 4011) on June 15th and biometrics on June 20th. I have also not received any updates. Do know your VO (Visa office)?

We are tracking GSS work permits here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet...kSY73x6QciQZCQqIqULBMjPJA/edit#gid=1507841804

Currently it seems work permits with biometrics dates between May 16th to May 20th are being processed.

hey no I don’t know my VO. Is there a way we can find our VO?
