I was on a spousal open work permit earlier [my wife was on an LMIA-based closed permit before]. Later, I applied for a work permit extension/change in conditions as my employer filed for my LMIA. Yes, I applied for a work permit before approval of my LMIA by submitting the LMIA application acknowledgment and payment receipt showing my LMIA application is being processed.
