Hi Anyone,

Am having a dilemma on how to do a new work permit with a different employer. Anybody tried to apply at the Port of Entry for work permit? How did it go?
I know it is much safer to apply online or by mail but I have only until April 1,2015 to work here in Canada because of the new law and if i'll do online or by mail application then i'll be given a year or less work permit depending on when will CIC accepts and process my application but if i'll just go to the border they can give me a work permit on the spot plus my new employer wanted me to start ASAP but the problem is my entry visa expired years ago but i do have a valid work permit until September 2014 and that will the officer ask about my previous employment where i resigned and was working for and was included in the payroll before i received my work permit? Well i was holding a valid close work permit from a different employer then but is technically not allowed. So, anyone?
