Need Advice on Closed Work Permit (CWP) Extension – Flagpoling or Online?

[cwp00]

Hey everyone!
I could really use some advice on extending my closed work permit (CWP). Here’s my situation:

• I’ve got an approved Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA/EIMT) and Québec Acceptance Certificate (CAQ)(recieved on the 17th), plus a job offer with a yearly salary of >65 000 in Quebec City.(skilled worker)
• My current closed work permit (CWP) expires on October 15, 2024, so I have less than 30 days left.
• My passport is good until July 15, 2026.
• No change to my current job conditions.

So, my questions are:

• Is it still possible to apply for an extension of my closed work permit (CWP) at this point?
• If yes, which route is better:
  • doing flag poling at a land border
  • going the online application route?

Would love to hear from anyone who’s been in a similar situation or has any insights. Thanks a lot in advance for any help you can provide!
