Hi guys,

Just found out I've lost an old work permit and my hard drive with a copy failed months ago :'( -- I need the information on it to complete the Physical Presence Calculation since they ask for detail and not a general timeline. I have enough days even without counting the time on my old work permit, but the form says they advise ALL eligible days be counted.

Has this happened to anyone else? I don't know if they will give me the information if I call CIC, and my other option at this point is to submit the application without that information.

Would love any ideas or suggestions you have.

Thanks!

I suggest you give CIC a call first and then go from there

I was in work permit too and I didn’t referred it, since I went with above method. Good thing for me is that I didn’t had any gaps in between..
