I received the correspondance from CIC to resend my Schedule A. When I read through I could find the below statement as well.

""When should I contact CIC?
You must also notify CIC of any changes to your application. Examples of changes include:
-> Change in status in Canada: you must submit a written statement to this office and include evidence to indicate the status in Canada of all persons listed in your Application for Permanent Residence; ""

I got a open work permit and my status changed to WORKER from VISITOR. Should I declare that in CIC through IRCC webform? Or it is not necessary as anyways I received the open work permit through CIC. Please clarify

The OWP is linked to the inland application so you shouldnt need to notify them unless the work permit is through some separate program such as IEC
