Hi @Miss bee,

I notice on my OINP confirmation of nomination letter it said:

Restriction Of Employment:
Yes, restricted to the Ontario employer - Company name.

I am currently on PGWP right now that going to be expired at the end of October so I need to maintain my worker status. Can i apply for BOWP or I have to ask my own company to use the WP Support Letter to get a Closed WP.

And if my employer can pay the compliance fees for my WP can i use that and apply on my own or I need my employer to do it?

Thank you in advance.

Unfortunately if you have employer restrictions on your nomination certificate, only option is to apply for Closing work permit. Your employer have to submit that job offer in employer portal and pay $230 compliance fees and he have to provide you that job number starting with A123456789. That you have to put in your work permit application form . Also you have attached copy of fees receipt your employer paid .
Nomination certificate
Job letter
Copy of pay stubs
Copy of previous work permit
Copy of passport .
You cannot submit that job offer in employer portal. Only your employer should do that part.

Thank you miss for answering. And does this have a timeline like do we have to wait for IRCC to accept my employer job offer? Or my employer can apply and pay for the fees and get the number plus receipt right away.
I hope I can get this asap to apply for WP and stay in implied status.

You can apply anytime. There is no timeline to submit it . Ask your employer to submit it asap and apply for new work permit if your previous one is expiring soon . It’s pretty easy process to submit job offer.

Hi, I have seen a lot of threads from you, may you please advise on this:

Got portal 2 this past Mondat called Ircc agent and was told that as the their database the last activity on my profile is just for Portal 1 email and the case office who sent me portal 2 doesn’t put notes or remarks that portal 2 is sent out, she advised me to email back to the same email from which i received first email for update on ecopr.

My question is first of all is it normal? Secondly if the officer doesn’t put remark does that mean after I uploded my picture in portal does anyone get hold of hit or is notified, and will it be processed regular. And i emailed the same email twice does it have any negative impact.

Your response will be appreciated.

I just noticed that my nomination letter also has restrictions on employment. I submitted my application on July 23, 2024. My PGWP expires by the end of April 2025. Is a closed work permit my only option to extend my stay in Canada or is there a step I may be able to get before April (considering the timelines) that may allow me to extend my stay?

No only option is to apply for closed work permit. Maybe your PR application will be processed and approved before your current PGWP expires.

Hi @Miss bee ,
I need your advice in this situation. I have applied for a closed work permit on May 11, 2024, but it might refused because of the missing of Compliance fee. My employer paid the compliance fees and I submitted a webform, but I don't trust IRCC, they might refused the Application (the current closed WP application still under processing). I know that I can still work until the decision is made by IRCC.

However, a friend of mine advised me to "Apply for the same work permit again before expiring of my current work permit (on Sep 25, 2024) that's will give me more time in case my current WP application got refused, and I can justify that because we forget to pay the compliance fees in the first application "

So my questions are:
1- Is that information provided by my friend accurate? Can I apply for the same work permit while I have the same application in process? and would that really give me more time as maintained status?
2- If I submitted a second work permit application, and the first one got approved, can I withdraw the second WP application? is that will affect the approved application?

I mean if you are pretty sure that it will get refused you can apply again for new work permit. You can do is submit new application with another job offer in employer portal and pay compliance fees and attached all required documentation this time . Apply new application and withdraw old application. You will get refund on that application if they haven’t processed that application yet . Ask your employer to pay fees again and submit another job offer and attach all documents this time .
