Hi everyone.

I got a postdoc offer, and want to apply for a work permit. I do not know how should I apply? And procedure?\

Can you tell me also the average time for the Philippines, recently?

Thanks, @scylla Could you tell me what is the difference between application procedures for a closed work permit or open work permit? Where I go through the application should I choose that? Should I also write a letter of explanation?

You are applying for a closed work permit tied to a specific employer - not an open work permit.

@scylla I have one more question. I have a study permit application in process. there is no decision on that. I want to withdraw that, and then apply for a work permit for a postdoc? There is a good reason for this change. I think that it is acceptable by IRCC. I should explain the reason. Am I right? Also, would withdrawing a study permit affect my chance of getting the closed work permit?
