Hi all,
My work permit expires in middle of July and need to stay for another 2weeks to tie lose ends. I need the time to sell of my car and for arranging my move back to UK.
Do I still need to apply for an extension as it is only for 2 weeks?
Please help
 
If you're only staying for two weeks, you should be fine and I wouldn't bother extending. Make sure you don't work or take advantage of any other benefits you're technically not entitled to during that period (e.g. health care system).
 
My status in Canada is work permit (LMIA exempt ICT) which is expiring by 30th May 2017. My employer cannot renew my work permit as I completed the cumulative work permit extension.
My spouse is on open work permit which also expires by May 2017

We both have applied for Express Entry PR application and received ITA. We need to submit all the required documents including the Medical exam by May 24th 2017

My wife is pregnant (thanks to God) and we are in a situation where she cannot proceed with her medical x-ray. I hear that CIC will keep our PR application on hold until the due date. But my question is there any possibility to stay back in Canada after our Work permit expiry? (May 30th 2017)
Initially we thought to get the AOR and apply for bridge open work permit

Please advice
Thanks

If you cannot submit your Medicals, AOR won't be issue and you cannot apply for BOWP based on AOR

I don't know how exactly CIC works with Pregnants, hopefully so.excited one who knows it could help

If AOR/BOWP is not anecessary option you can ask for Status change to Visitor, but you need funds and a good application (if you are not fron a visa exempt country it could be more difficult)

Note than as visitor you have to pay your medical expenses; pregnacy and childbirth are really expensive (I read minimum 10k or more with complications)

I heard pregnant X-ray could be done during 2nd or 3rd trimester using a protection chaperone, but personally I tried to avoid it

Other options are getting a LMIA WP or Working Holidays/International experince if allowed.


You may contact CIC regarding how your application will be processed if your wife x-ray is pending, make several calls because probably you'll get different answers

Also performed medicals excepts X-ray, if you get a spouse document to upload, you could send your application, get AOR and apply for BOWP (which won't be issued until pass R10 check, probably close to PR decision, but you will be under implied status, able to work and keeping health insurance if your province provide health insurance for ICT workers)
