Hi,

I am applying for an extension of my open work. Been working in Canada for a year, and will continue working with the same employer. I am not sure about what's the proper answer for question number 3.

1) A work permit with the same employer
2) An initial work permit or a work permit with a new employer
3) Restoration of your status as a worker
4) Temporary resident permit

I checked 1 and 3, I was wondering if this is correct or if I should check number 2 and 3 instead. I just don't want to get a work permit attached to a specific employer.

Thanks in advance for your help!

for open work permit extension, (provided that your permit states that you are eligible for extension due to passport expiration date or some other reason) option 2 is your best choice.

Open work permit always option 2. Closed or LMIA based work permit would select option 1.
