Hello,

I applied for a CO-OP work permit and it got approved last week.

The permit says:

Employer- My College Name (xxx)
Employment location: UNKNOWN.
Occupation: OPEN

Someone tell me what does employment location means? Does this mean that I can work anywhere in Canada?

Or do I need to apply for the co-op permit again to do the amendment?

Please let me know. Thanks!

1. Yes, except Quebec.
2. You should know it should be part of course.

Thank you for your response.

So what you mean here is, I can work anywhere in Canada except Quebec if the "Employment location stated as UNKNOWN" right.

Btw I did not quite catch the latter part of your reply. If you don't mind could you please explain what did you refer by "You should know it should be part of course. "

Hi! I still waiting for my application to get approved. May I ask you how long did it take to get your permit? and do you need to offer your fingerprints? Thank you so much!

My application got approved within 6 weeks. (Applied on April 15th and got approved on May 26th).
If you give your biometrics when you apply for the visa, you don't need to. Normally biometrics are valid for 10 years from the day you provided.
