Sounds expectantly ridiculous.   I guess in the province you can't check the status yourself have to wait for them?  Geez, because of their delay you had to do all that extra.  Feel for you.

Was told on the phone (Oh oh) that if your 13A is approved before the expiry date of the current visa whatever it is then you are good but yeah if it's going to be not be approved before then you will need to do the 1-2 month extension.

Solid chance you will get called and approved like 2 days after you dump some PHP into the extension. 

So much fun.
