You apply for an extension of your work permit with a copy of your new passport.
 
hi there, do I need the new LMO when I renewal WP with the current employer under 4 years?

Yes - you need an LMO/LMIA.
 
Hello,

I have a friend who is a live-in caregiver. Her work permit was issued for 1 year only because it was based on her passport expiry date. In her LMO she would be given 3 years work permit.

My question:

Could she still use the old LMO to extend her worker permit which is expiring on March?

Please I need your advise.
Thanks...
 
i had the same experience but i am under temporary foreign worker program. And my work permit has a note that my LMO was valid for 2years. Do you have the note in your work permit? If you have, then you should be able to apply for extension using your old LMO/LMIA together with your new passport.

in my case, after getting my new passport, i applied for new work permit online just like how we applied for tfw work permit the first time. but i am sure that the forms, requirements and other details are different from LCProgram. so i suggest you search the CIC site where you can find the details of how to apply for work permit under LCP.

other details of my procedure are in this thread:
