@totti2007 - Where exactly did you change the work permit category? I don't see this option anywhere in the "come to canada" wizard. Please help if you can - I've been struggling with this for weeks now. :/
follow the instruction in this link, you would end up with IMP or foreign worker (no difference). click on determine your eligibility and fill it exactly based on instruction. hope it would help

If I follow these instructions exactly, the end state is them asking for a bunch of documents not relevant to SUV. Instead I changed the answer to the following question - "What type of work permit do you want to apply for?"

Instead of answering - "A work permit with Labour Market Impact Assessment exemption", I chose "A work permit for an entrepreneur or self-employed person".

This took me to this final state - https://ibb.co/Dtf6mkP

I'm assuming this is the correct final state. Can someone confirm?

I can not confirm this. Because according to CIC the startup work permit is a kind of international mobility program (IMP) which is code c10 and is different from self employed which is under owner operator program code c11.
I know the documents seem irrelevant but they are similar to the additional documents you should provide anyway according to the “work permit outside canada“ documents checklist and your visa office requirements which you should fulfill them too. It is a bit complicated, I know. An applicant I know and got the WP has provided some such as “reference letters“

Hello,

Do you know that Ghost Update will happen once your application passes one step and entering to a new step OR it will happen once someone opens your file?

I don’t believe GU will happen once someone opens a profile.

Actually, I received the second GU on min and my dependents (Spouse and Children) on Aug 17th and still waiting.

Thanks!

I changed the work permit category to "self employment/entrepreneur"
On November 18, my work permit for an SUV visa after 11 months has been refused because The online Employer Portal selected the WRONG “LMIA exemption code” C10 instead of A75.

First I wanted to share my experience here with anyone who wants to apply for it please be cautious about this point as it is a huge BUG in their system.

Second, any idea from people who had the same issue or heard the same issue that helps me before reapplying this?

Thanks in advance!

Hi Iman,
I am sorry that your WP got rejected because of the misinformation provided by CIC. Recently we received our LOS and we are in the process of submitting the required forms. What would you suggest about the LMIA code in the IMM5802 form?
Based on the information provided on this page, we have to choose ‘Significant Benefit – R205(a) ’ (Box 22 will populate automatically).
But based on recent results as well as yours, it causes request refusal.
What would you suggest?
I really appreciate any help you can provide.

select "startup business class PR....." which allocates A75 automatically

Hello,

I am going to reapply and still gathering appropriate documents.

Thanks!
Iman
Hi,

Do you have any updates on your work permit application process?
I am trying to gather my documents and I don't know what to upload for "Employment Reference Letter" , "Letter from current employer" and "Employment contract". There is no place to upload Proof of fund or LOS in the application required files...

1/ No need, if your child is under 18, just upload an explanation letter showing that your child will need to enter a public school and you will find a school for him/her based on where you stay at that moment.
2/ upload it in the client information
3/ dm me, and I can share you the whole process for purpose of travel
