I'm a US citizen and have been in Canada since 2021 on a 2 year closed permit. About a month and a half before expiry, my employers notified me they decided to eliminate my position. I currently have a month left on my closed permit but I'll be leaving Canada in about 2 weeks. I'm shipping some...

Don't know if anyone here has anything to add, seems to be the case with most of the threads I've posted lately, but: Does anyone know if you can apply for a new work permit under a new job offer number, while a withdrawal from a previous one on account is pending? My application is stuck, as...

Anyone have any experience with this? I have an online offer that has been stuck in processing / review for 8 weeks. Tried to apply at the border but for some reason the CBSA agent couldn't unmatch the offer from my application, and let me in as a visitor to wait. But since I'm just sitting here...

I originally applied for a closed work permit online, but as processing was taking longer than normal, I flew to the border where I was told there was already an approval pending, and that because an approval was already attached the job offer number, I couldn't withdraw it for him to issue me a...

So, my online application from the US was stalled, past processing estimates so I had to make the call to try at the POE. When I got there, the agent was ready to issue me my permit, but when he was filling out the form, pulled up my online application which had evidently been approved but is...

I'm curious if anyone has knowledge of what exactly happens at the POE (particularly air) if a work permit application is denied, or there is a request for additional documents? I'm going to be applying soon, and am trying to have an idea of as many possibilities as I can, because although I've...

Gonna try my luck again, as none of my threads have been getting replies... I have an LMIA exempt application in, approaching the 5 week processing time estimate. My future employer is getting antsy as the position has been open for a long time, and they're getting backed up workload wise. So...

Before anyone suggests: yes I know I can apply at the POE. Received my job offer and submitted an online application for a NOC 5241 position, which is LMIA-exempt under NAFTA or whatever they are calling it now. Because of concerns they may not approve, chose to be safe and apply in advance...

I'd have posted this in Temporary Workers but none of my questions get answered there, and this is maybe universal enough to other applications. I've hd several permits (study and work). I'm applying for a new work permit after a few years outside Canada and noticed there's nothing on my...

Just starting a thread about login issues since yesterday's "upgrade". Pretty remarkable that the same login issues seem to randomly plague users in 2021 that also did in 2016, or 2013, or... Anyway, current issue for me besides the usual "login loop" is " You are no longer signed in, error...

I'm a US citizen applying with an LMIA exemption. My Document checklist DOES NOT ask for either IMM 5456 or the other one in the general download package (it also doesn't allow me to upload a Letter of Explanation, but I recall that option not being available until all my required docs are...

I'm finalizing my online application and have come to a question re: my current employer. I just recently took a part-time job, that has no relevance to the NOC offer I'm applying with. I've been there for a little less than 2 months. I'm not prepared yet to tell them of my possible leaving, and...

I'm applying online for a work permit that is covered by the NAFTA / CUSMA exemption. When I fill the questionnaire out to gather documents, when I select "Under International Trade Agreement", I'm required to submit proof of an inter-company transfer(which I'm not doing). When I select "...with...

Haven't had much luck with this elsewhere. I'm putting an application together to return to Canada under the International Mobility Program, for a position identical to a position I had received a 1 year permit for a few years ago. So far, so good. HOWEVER. For the job experience that is most...

A few years ago, I applied for, and received a work permit from inside Canada. I'm currently submitting an application from outside Canada and am being asked for more documentation than I was asked for the other time. I'm not applying for Permanent Residence, just a temporary permit. I work in...

I lived in Canada for 10 years, got a degree in a Canadian university and spent almost 4 years working in the appropriate NOC positions, yet due to a few things (including blowing a PNP by misunderstanding it), had to leave in summer 2019 because my work permit expired and my employer chose to...

Saw the news of the Saturday Surprise, with the dramatic drop in the CRS cutoff and started thinking about CEC again. I was eligible before, and had my profile in the draw from 2017-2019, but never received an ITA, due to some factors out of my control (age and foreign work experience, since I'd...

Long story, but I'll be brief. Originally entered Canada on a study permit, stayed and completed a 4 year degree. Got PGWP, with intent to apply for PR. Didn't get an ITA (CRS too low due to a variety of factors not in my control), then received a Closed WP for 1 year. At the end of that...
