Did you do two one-year work permits, or one two-year one? The upper limit for me is 4 consecutive years, of which I've done 2. The IEC work permit cannot be renewed/extended, but I was allowed to apply for a fresh new one.

My coverage was provided by my employer. And no, the funds weren't even asked for at any point, though I'd prepared for that by bringing supporting documents. Also, an addendum to my original post: after acquiring your new permit, a few people have to be notified. Probably your employer will...

I'm posting this thread in case there's anyone else in my situation and they're not sure what to do. In my case, I'm an Australian national who entered Canada on an IEC 2-year open Working Holiday permit around two years ago. I've just successfully obtained my second work permit, which is...

Hi, I'm a successful applicant of IEC Australia for an open work permit (remarkably, it only took 2 weeks from them receiving the documents to my receiving the Letter of Introduction...) and I have everything ready to go for the flight over (health insurance, bank statement for proof of funds...
