Hi,

Asking on behalf of my friend who is working on a work permit (via LMO) at a retail store in Edmonton, Alberta.
His employer has decided to sell the business, and the new owner wants to keep my friend.

Employment conditions (work hours, pay rate, etc) will stay the same. But business legal name and CRA Tax number (---RP0001) will change.

Does my friend need a new work permit based on a new LMO? Please advise, and thank you much in advance.
