The CFM has been notified that one of the service centers responsible for adjudicating member petitions is experiencing vast processing delays. Due to this delay, the CFM has updated their recommendations to 185 days processing time for standard U.S. Work Permits.
All P2 applications should be sent directly to the CFM office, as this direct line of communication may help speed up the process.
Please check the following link for the most updated information from the Canadian Federation of Musicians on P2 visa timelines and new recommendations for processing times due to potential delays:
