Hi,

I am applying for Permanent Residency in Canada. I am having a valid work permit. I want to know do I still need A VALID VISA TO APPLY. Earlier I was having student visa which is expired now and yet I didn't apply for new Visa basis on my work permit.

As per the checklist, I am confused what does below statement states.

In the section Travel documents and passport


if you live in a country other than your country of nationality, include a photocopy of your visa for the country in which you currently live.

What does exactly this mean, Do I need to apply for visa??

Your valid work permit serves as your visa and your reason to currently be in Canada. You don't need to apply for any other visa at this time.
