Hello Seniors,
I sent my inland application Nov Oct 2015 with OWP. I recieved my Work permit a month ago but it was valid until may 16 2016 only as my passport is expiring on the same date. I sent my passport for renewal to BLS india last month and I was hoping that it will be renewed within a month or so. For passport renewal they asked me to get clearance from IRB as my work permit type is 27 (Immigration and Refugee board, I am not a refugee). Now my passport renewal will take more time and my Work permit will expire before my passport renews. I have recieved my Application no. from CIC though.
Please suggest What should i do. what is the best option for me and can I legally stay in canada when my WP expires? Please advice.
