Hi all,

I'm wrapping up my documents for the citizenship application. I'm looking for an answer for the days in between after the pr and before my work permit expires.
I came Canada with work permit on 13 March 2018, I received PR 6 January 2021, my work permit document states work permit expired 17 Feb 2021.
My questions are , How should I count from 6 Jan to 17 Feb 2021 ? As a PR or as a work permit holder?
Another question regarding the same issue is, I can't fill up online application physical presence tab , because I entered my temporary work permit received and expired dates as I mentioned above, the system says "work permit expired date must be before the date I became PR". Should I enter the date work permit expired as the date I received PR? When I write the work permit expire date as it appear on the work permit document, I'm keep getting the same error.
I would appreciate if anyone helps me on this matter.

Work permit- 13 March 2018 till 5 January 2021
PR date- 6 January till date.

Basically you became PR on January 6 and your work permit gets invalid on that dat.

Your work permit and TRV are void and expired the moment you receive your CoPR. So expired date is 6 Jan or whenever you received CoPR (not PR card).

Thanks you very much for the prompt answers.
I noticed that the date on PR card (PR since) 06 Jan 2021, date on CoPR document is 07 Jan 2021. Which date should I use as PR date, the date on PR card or the date on CoPR?
I assume the date on CoPR but I’m not sure about it.
Sorry, if this question has already bern asked.
Thanks

Use the date on your COPR not on your PR card.

Your time on TRV/Work Permit will be Mar, 13 2018 to one day before, date your received the PR (as per CoPR) not as per the date as you got PR card in your hand
date your received the PR (as per CoPR) onwards your status changed to PR.
