I have a question regarding LMO, work permits, and changing jobs! Hopefully someone here can help me!
Here is a timeline of events for me in Canada:
2004 - 2009 -- University in Canada
2009 -- Obtained 3-year open work permit (Post Graduate Work Permit Program)
2010 -- Started work at employer "ABC".
2012 -- Open work permit was about to expire, so employer ABC filed for LMO and received it. Then applied for work permit and received 2 year work permit tied to employer ABC.
2012 -- Received new job offer from employer "DEF" and they filed for A-LMO, which was also approved and received. Now, new work permit application has been filed.
Here's my question. I currently have a valid work permit and valid SIN. I have a positive LMO for my new employer and just waiting for my new work permit to come in the mail. Can I switch jobs and start working with the new employer under "implied status"?
