Hi, I am applying to extend my spouse's open work permit based on my PGWP. In the application to change conditions, extend my stay or remain in Canada as a worker what do you select for question 3 ? She already has a work permit (PGWP) and working for an employer but it is not tied to that employer. Should we select "an initial work permit or work permit with new employer" ? Please clarify. I greatly appreciate your time.
