I need to apply for a co-op/intern work permit along with a student Visa as it is required for the college program. It states a co-op/intern work permit is required in the college acceptance letter.
It seems from reading the site and trying to fill out the form, that you actually have to wait until you have your student visa and are in Canada before you apply for the co-op/intern work permit
The form 5710E makes you put your address in Canada and the time you arrive in Canada as the start date and it can't be a date later than today's date. So its like you have to already be in Canada before you can fill it out.
I don't want to not get a permit I should be getting beforehand but it seems like I have to wait.
Anyone know the answer to this or has done this?
Thanks.
