Implied status - SIN number

[notmyrealname]

Hi I am an international student working on campus with my current sin. My visa expires in a week but I have submitted an application to extend my study permit but still have not received any word from CIC. I would like to know if I can continue to work with my current sin even though it expires on the same day of my current visa. Should I be aware of anything? should I contact service Canada to let them know that I am under implied status? should I let my employer know that I am under implied status?

You can work on sin legally untill decision will be made on your file. That's the rule of CIC.

You can work full-time until a decision is made on your work permit application if you:

• completed your study program
• applied for a work permit before your study permit expired and
• were eligible to work off-campus without a work permit while studying and did not work more hours than you were allowed to while working off-campus.

If these don’t apply to you, you must wait until the permit arrives to begin your new job. It is illegal to work in Canada without a permit.

If your work permit is refused, you must stop working the day you are notified of the refusal.

Hi Cynthia,

how about my spouse who has an expiring OWP (same with my Student Permit expires on August 31), I am just waiting for my PGWP, what should we do, because it takes so long to wait for the PGWP. Do you think he can still stay here and work? What if it is already August 15, and we still don't have my PGWP, and processing times for work permit extension takes a long time.

Please help
