Applying for visa while waiting for PR (inland)

[cenker]

hi there. has anyone applied for a visa while waiting for PR? i might have to make a few business trips in 2017 and my current work visa expires in May 2017 (same date with my previous work permit). I have received my open work permit but of course it does not allow re-entry. i believe i could just apply online. anyone with experience ? thanks in advance.

Any insight? Nobody ever extended the visa.

did you receive a TRV with your initial work permit and if so, what is the validity date on that? if you require a visa to travel to canada, i would imagine something was put in your passport along with the work permit? or does it not work that way?

if there is no current travel visa in your passport, then you can try applying for a TRV. many people do this. i'd recommend asking this question in the inland 2016 specific thread. there are more people there who may be in similar situations (or maybe someone from there will provide an answer here for you).

Yes, I do have a work visa on my passport which allows me to travel. My previous work permit was gonna expire in May 2017 so my visa has the same date. I have received another 2 year open work permit because of my inland application. But my visa is still gonna expire in May, so am I supposed to just go to my account and make an online application for TRV?
