Thank you Angel0912 for this info.this definitely helps.I'm really planning to change job,and as much as possible i'm trying to avoid an extension from my current employer.angel0912 said:bukyder, hopefully you will receive your PR before your work permit ends but just in case, you can just apply for an open work permit this coming june using your UCI...that meaning you dont need to acquire an LMO from your employer...it should give you enough till your application is done and will give you more option if ever you wanted to work somewhere else...hope this helps
