I’ve got my 60 day covid extension from CW today, applied Nov 26. Expires Jan 29.

- Non-b expired April 2020

- USA, embassy letter

I had an appointment for M1 (only option online). They wouldn’t recognize it until I went to counter M3 where I was given a handwritten note to come back for pickup at time of my appointment. Went smooth.

Clusterf*ck and miserable at MTT for 90 day report. To the guy who switched numbers with me to bump me up 115 in the queue, I am eternally grateful 🙏🙏🙏

Can you clarify something for me. How did you get a US Embassy letter? They aren't issuing them anymore since October, I think.

@Benjamin *****
I had the embassy letter in October for Covid extension 1. Printout from website that they won't create new ones for this latest extension.

So whether the 60 days runs from the date of expiry or the date of application seems to be based on nationality.
