Did you look at Seattle's web site? The information is there: http://www.canadainternational.gc.ca/seattle/imm/visa_temp.aspx?lang=eng#REQUIREMENTSCANADA

If you already have your WP, you won't be called for the interview, normally.

Hi

I have a similar problem as Sumeet. I live in Nova Scotia and my visa is getting expired in next 2 months. My work permit is valid for more than 1 year. Can you please guide me how do I get my visa extended? I am not able to find the correct set of forms and where to send them?

Please guide.

Thanks,
Shubha
