Hello,

I’m currently in Canada on a IEC work permit which is about to expire, and waiting for EE with 468 points.
Since I’m already here, and I can’t extend my current work permit or get a new one under IEC, I’m looking for alternatives until I can apply for a BOWP.

As a software developer, I worked full time for my current company (Canadian) from my home country as a independent contractor for the past 2 years previous to my arrival. If I need to leave Canada I will continue working from there.

My question is, can I apply to a LMIA exempt work permit under the intra-company transferees category?
Has anyone been through a similar case?

Best regards.
