Hello,

I am a refugee claimant and I want to renew my work permit. I have faced a couple of issues applying online. Once I am signed in, I cannot find a link asking for applying/renewing a work permit. I have the application and all documents completed and ready. However, I CANNOT upload them online. My account does not show this option but it shows other things such as: Interim Federal Health Program and Transfer Schools.

Another big issue is that the work permit application asks for the expiry date of passport. When I put the exact expiry date shown on my passport, I cannot validate it because it requires that the expiry date should be greater than today's date. As you know, I have been here for almost 3 years and the passport expired a year a go and I cannot renew it. Have you ever experienced this issue?

Please share your experience with it.

Thank

I don’t know about the first issue.

Regarding the second one, it’s okay if your passport expired last year, in the expiry date section, put 2019 (same month & day) to validate the form. They know it, I always did that & it was fine.

Thanks a lot but I am still having the first issue. I cannot find a way to upload the completed work permit application. Any ideas?

Thanks

Did you print the application and signed it yourself (handwritten signature) then tried to upload it?
