No dear. You did not have to extend your stay as a visitor you are a work permit holder.I applied online so it should go to the Ottawa visa centre
All I needed was a reentry visa to come back into Canada after my vacation is over I have a valid work permit until 2019 everything I put in my no on mycic account they tell me I have to extend my stay as a visitor
I don't know what to do now, I am scheduled to leave canada on December 10th for vacation
This is what i am advising you to do. Call Cic today or tomorrow explain to them its the visitor re-entry visa you need in your passport based on the fact you are a work permit holder.
Ask them if this can be corrected.
