Hi there,
I'm wondering if my husband should apply for a new employer or just renew his current work permit to extend his stay! Here is his case, he has been funded by Brazilian government to work in Canada (in University as a postdoctoral fellow) since 2012 April, and he has renewed one more year in 2013 online and his current work permit will expire on 2014/Mar/31 so as his TRV. We just got married this January and I'm preparing documents to apply the family sponsorship for him. However, it might take 14 months or so and his TRV is going to expire soon so he can't apply the open work permit since on CIC website they mentioned TRV has to be at least 6 month valid if I understand it well. Anyways, finally he got his Canadian job offer recently (the same school but working for different professor). So basically it's under the same employer (the school as postdoctoral fellow) but paid differently, previous is from Brazil, and current one is from the university. So my question is should I go ahead to renew his work permit as we did last year or I should apply for a new employer application for his work permit.
Any help will be much appreciated!!
