Greetings everyone
With an approved temporary closed work permit from outside canada. Can one enter through a different province other than that of the province where the employer is and spend two days before moving to the province where work is to be done.
Will the work permit be issued at the port of entery in a different province with no issues or are u obliged to enter in the province where your employer is?

Yes you can enter in a different province. There are are only a few POEs if flying into Canada.

So even if the province where your employer is and where you will be working has a POE but you decide to enter through a different province and spend a day or two before moving to the province where work will be done.
It’s no problem if you do that without your employers concern? And there will be no issues issuing your closed work permit wherever you decide to enter.

As long as you show you are travelling to the other province, you should be fine.

And that proof ure going to the other province should be a booked flight from your province of POE to destination
Is that it?
Or something additional?
