    Working Holiday Visa to Visitor Status

    Sorry, I actually have one more question. If I applied for a WP with the company as a sponsor before my current OWP expires, will I get the maintained status until approval, and thus, can I keep working or is it like the visitor application and I won't be able to work until IRCC make a decision?

    Working Holiday Visa to Visitor Status

    Thank you, this is definitely easier to understand now. Regarding my second question, I had an interview for a job yesterday and if the company decides to retain my application, they will sponsor me for a WP. My question was more about what if I need to apply for the WP after my current one...

    Working Holiday Visa to Visitor Status

    Thank you for answering so quickly. 1. I am still confused by this 'restore your status' thing. If my visitor application got rejected, why would I apply for my status to be restored as visitor? 2. I may have found a company to sponsor a WP but if they give me a positive answer while I have a...

    Working Holiday Visa to Visitor Status

    Hello, Here is my situation: I have a Working Holiday Visa valid until June 11th (expires in 3 weeks). I applied to the new TR to PR on May 6th in the French-Speaking, Essential Workers, non-Health care stream. I try to find the answers to my questions but I couldn't find a situation close to...

    TR to PR existing work permit expires in July ..

    I'm in the same situation with a Working Holiday Visa expiring in June. I applied to the new TR to PR program as an French Speaker, Essential Worker. Just for your information, it is still unclear if we will remain eligible to the program with a visitor status. IRCC didn't clearly communicate...

    New Policy for International Students - April 12th, 2021

    Because it was a way to filter applicants. Those ready to apply would already have all the documents and those not ready would apply few weeks later. But they forgot that a lot of applicants are desperate (which is understandable in some cases) and applied even if they are not ready or even not...

    New Policy for International Students - April 12th, 2021

    Same! Why would I listen to a shady “lawyer” on YouTube who just wants to promote his business? Even with the official information from IRCC, there are still a lot of question unanswered. Hopefully they will figure out everything soon.

    New Policy for International Students - April 12th, 2021

    The guide is extremely ambiguous and my interpretation (and hope) is that you only need a job when you submit the application. I’ve seen people asking on Twitter but IRCC always reply the same thing over and over again without really making things clear. I’m also hoping for a Bridging work...

    New Policy for International Students - April 12th, 2021

    Thay would be a good way for the government to make a lot of money easily though. Using unprepared applicants as “pigs”.

    I understand now. Your wife' situation is a bit tricky. But for the other people who complain about not having a spot for IELTS, it is not down to luck. They could have passed the test last year or at the beginning of this year (which is what I did). I don't expect people to pay for medical exam...

    New Policy for International Students - April 12th, 2021

    How can she learned that she will be eligible for CEC, only in April? Because if she was planning to apply for CEC, she knew when she would meet the 1 year of work experience requirement and she would have planned the IELTS exam before they announced the new program. I might be wrong in regard...

    New Policy for International Students - April 12th, 2021

    I agree that it was really unfair to release the guide last minute. A lot of stress and a lot of spots have been taken by applicants who don't qualified but they didn't know it because they were too lazy to read the requirements. I totally agree with you on that point. But again, it is not down...

    New Policy for International Students - April 12th, 2021

    I've been following this thread for a while now and I understand your opinion but I don't totally agree. I applied to the French Speaker: Essential, Non Health-care stream so I wasn't under the same pressure as most of the people here but I think it is partially wrong to say that the system is...

    Express Entry Draw #177 (March 2021) - Prediction, comments

    I'm also in the FSW pool with a 527 CRS Score and waiting for a draw. I'm actually curious about the webform you submitted to IRCC to let them know you're already in Canada. I'm in Toronto myself, working (but not a qualified job) and my work permit will expire soon. Did you hear about someone...

    PR application - From Single to Common-Law post-ITA

    Thank you for your answer. It's good to know that we will still be able to apply individually and not as common-law. Another question though, at the question "Will your spouse or common-law partner come with you to Canada?", what's the answer in my situation? We are already in Canada and we...

    PR application - From Single to Common-Law post-ITA

    Hi Everyone, I read different topics already but I can't find the answer to my question. I live in Toronto and I'm currently in the Express Entry pool for FSW with a score of 527. I have an open work permit that expires in June and my plan was to apply for a Bridging Work Permit to extend my...
