unfortunately, the safest time to do this is once you have eCOPR, work permits are generally bound to a single employer (unless you have an open one) and work permit applications are taking a pretty length of time at the moment.
It's quite common for IRCC to ask for such documents for NON-EE application, I believe they ask for some of same documents (that you uploaded during your application fill) again to re-verify your eligibility based on the condition set as per province.
Just saw a guy in the paper PNP thread with an AR of March 29 2022 get portal 1 today. Absolutely farce. I don't know how to channel my rage right now because there is no-one I can complain to and will actually do something about it. Fuck IRCC.
it's fair enough to rage about this stuff given there's no logic to the way any of this shit works.
I still have the PgWP valid. And as I under stand if we have aor we can apply the open work permit while waiting for the decision.
That's not the point. The point is: Does your nomination certificate list your employer? If it does, then forget about what permit you have. You HAVE to stay in that job until the day you're a permanent resident.
No, but your nomination certificate most likely does.
omfg dude. The nomination certificate and PGWP are two different things.
I actually never carefully looked at the nomination certificate. Now I see there is an employer listed. Safer to just stay with your current employer. (@moscatojuices relax buddy, we will soon nominate you to revamp IRCC...lol).
from MP to Portal 1, IRCC can still ask you for ADR such as pay stubs, employment letters, and all bank statements,... Would you risk everything to this point just because you couldn't work for a few more months until you have your PR card?
I will just say, and this is based on BC only, that if you apply under the stream which doesn't require employment, then you don't need to notify provinical PNP office about the job change. My stream doesn't require employment, my contract ended and later it was renewed. I emailed BC PNP and they return email quoting some sections in a technical manual that I haven't seen before and told me that I don't need to inform them of my (un)employment changes.
I am super annoyed today so sorry if it came out as aggressive. But when you mention "revamp", seriously it does. I can't imagine how some people are going through this process with abusive employers paying minimum wage and demanding they take no vacation time.
