Hi, while filling up the Canadian citizenship form, I am stuck on question 9b where it asks for the status info during the eligibility period prior to becoming PR, when it was obtained and date it expired.

I just have one relevant status during the eligibility period which is "Worker" - got it via post grad work permit on 2012 March 22 which expired on 2013 March 22.

But I had obtained AINP (Alberta's PNP) nomination and had applied to obtain a new work permit prior to post grad work permit's expiration.

Now while looking for this new work permit, I unfortunately wasn't able to find where I kept it. So don't know when it exactly expired. Thus not sure what date to put down for the Expiry date of the "Worker" status on question 9b.

Any suggestion on how to best tackle this?

Thank you

I have a similar problem where I can't seem to find my work permit. Any luck with this? Can we go to IRCC office to get a print out of this work permit copy?

I think you just have to put the date when you did your landing and received PR. That should be the date of expiry of your work permit, not the actual expiry date written on your work permit. When I did landing they invalidated my work permit. Seniors can confirm.

Hey,
That makes sense for the expiry, and I will do that. However, since I can't seem to find my Work Permit, I am not sure when it started from. Any advice?

Best bet I think would be to call cic, I believe they may be this in their record.

Guys, I have the same issue. Can you please confirm, if your application was approved and you received your citizenship ?
