Hi..
Just wanted to inquire about my situation, my passport will expired January 2013 together with my open work permit. And I applied for my permanent residence last November 2010. I am going to renew my passport this month..i am currently working under live in caregiver program..since i am already open work permit, i wanted to work related to my field..meaning i will no longer be working as nanny..i am looking for job that doesn't require LMO..
My questions are:
- do i need to stay with a job that requires LMO or contract/job offer since i am still under open work permit?
- if i am gonna apply for extension of my open work permit, do i need to find a job that requires LMO for that, or U will based my extension with my renewed passport?
-what are the requirements for extension of open work permit?

Pls help coz I wanted to find job that will help me fund my schooling since i can't avail the student loan yet.. Coz i wanted to go to university this fall..

Thanks

You said the you have an open work permit, if you do, you can work at any occupation that you want. You don't need a LMO.

So just a new contract i need then.. Thanks

You don't need a new contract either. You said you have an open work permit. Just find an employer and go to work.
