Hello experts,

I have a unique situation. I came to canada as a temporary worker under intra-company transferee. I have been working with the same employer for last 3 years everytime extending the Work permit. However, this time when I applyed for a work permit extension - CIC issued me a permit with Employer as BLANK and Location as UNKNOWN. I would like to know if this Work permit will be treated as OPEN WORK PERMIT? Kindly let me know ASAP as I already told a different employer that my WP is open.

NB. I donot satisfy usual requirements to obtain a open work permit. Can this be a mistake CIC made? Can i use this situation in my advantage? What are the grey areas that probably I am not knowing.

I need experts to advice me on this situation.


Please help me.
Regards,
 
Does it say open under occupation?
 
To the best of my knowledge the Occupation would have to say "Open" for it to be an open work permit. So based on what I know, you have a closed work permit. Hopefully someone else can confirm.
