Hi everyone,
I hope all is well. I am a protected person and need some urgent information from you all. My original work permit expired on April 21st, 2024, but I applied for a work permit extension on February 3rd, 2024. I received a letter on February 4th, 2024, which mentioned that "you are authorized to continue working under the same conditions as your original work permit until August 1st, 2024, or until a decision is made on your application, whichever is first." Additionally, my PR application is in process with a timeline of July 23rd, 2024, but no decision has been made yet.
The work permit extension processing time has expired for over three months, and there are only 13 days left until the PR processing timeline ends. However, no decisions have been made regarding either my PR application or my work permit extension. I called an IRCC agent on July 2nd, 2024, and the agent told me that I can continue working after August 1st, 2024, if no decision has been made by then.
Can you advise me on whether I can continue working, or if I might lose my job?
Thank you!
