Hello everyone,

I was already in Canada with a study permit, co-op work permit and a TRV (all are still valid).

I had my medical done in August 2018 when renewing my TRV.

I applied for a PR and OWP through the spousal sponsorship program. I got my AOR a couple weeks ago and my OWP came in the mail today.

The problem is my OWP says I can’t work in the medical field which is a problem as I do. It’s why I came here.

My PR application even shows a MR is not required as they have it and as I declared on my application.

It seems to me they made a mistake here. How can I get this rectified? I shouldn’t have to reapply and spend money and time to fix this.

I do have a USA visa. Would flagpoling work if I just explained the situation to them? I tried calling IIRC all day and couldn’t get through. We also have an Inland CBSA Office here; I wonder if they can assist?

Anyone know of a case where MR was provided and they still put the conditions on the OWP? Or how to get them to fix a mistake for free/promptly?

Thanks
 
Best / fastest option is to go to a US/Canada land border and ask that the condition be removed from your work permit.

Hey there,
I just did medical 5 days back. Should I got now to border or wait few weeks to get the medical updated?

CBSA will not change work permit conditions. You can try but 99% of the time CBSA will not change work permit conditions. Only iRCC can do that so apply online.
