Hi, I am an International Student and my wife is an open work permit holder. But she is the principal applicant of our Non-EE provincial nomination PR application. She got employer restricted SINP nomination as an existing worker and work permit support letter as well. She already applied for PR and waiting for AOR. Now she is gonna apply for employer specific work permit for bridging her PR. My question is that does her employer need to submit employer compliance fee $230 before her work permit application? Does it applicable for an existing open work permit holder? Please help. This is a confusing gray area.
