Hello,

I have a valid open work permit which expires on September 16th, 2023. I am in the process of filling out the IMM5710e form to extend my work permit while I await my PR. I have a question regarding "section 3: how to claim refugee status in Canada". Which option should I select? I believe it is either "Apply for a work permit with the same employer" or "Apply for a work permit for the first time or with a new employer".

Here are the options:
-Apply for a work permit with the same employer
-Restore my status as a worker
-Apply for a work permit for the first time or with a new employer
-Get a new temporary resident permit (for inadmissible applicants only)

Please let me know if you need more information from me in order to help choose the right answer.

If you have valid work permit, then you need to apply to extend work permit,
