Hi there,

I am an Australian citizen and received my POE letter of Introduction for IEC a few months ago. On my letter it says my permit is valid till mid February. I've recently had a change of circumstances and will no longer be able to go to Canada in Feb but still hope to go there later in the year.

If I do not arrive in Canada in February, will my POE just vanish and will I be able to re-apply for my IEC visa? Australians only get one IEC visa so I need to know if getting my POE counts as my one visa.

On the CIC website it states "If the validity date has passed and you have not yet come to Canada, you must submit a new application."

I would just like to confirm that I will still be able to submit a new application.

Thank you!

It will vanish and you will not get another chance. This counts as your one chance.
