Post Grad Work Permit set to expire, perm residence app sent

[Ponga]

Well, I am not so sure. My friends were in situation when they started a process inland(she is from Japan and he is Canadian), then she went to gather her stuff in Japan, stuck there for 3 weeks and when she came back to Canada, CIC tried to force her to stop her overseas process and start a new one inland. They could not convince CIC that she actually lives in Canada and 3 weeks it was just a trip to Japan. in the end they convinced CIC, but all this stuff with inland-overseas (CIC uses this definition) is not so obvious as you may think.

It sounds like they applied with an INLAND application and then she went to Japan and was `stuck there' for 3 weeks....which could be the problem.

An Inland application requires that the applicant actually be living in Canada.

A! Is not what you suggest a fraud? You have been living in Canada for 3 years but go to USA for a day, apply for PR "overseas", pretending you live in USA , then go back to your usual live IN CANADA?

It is not fraud and a person does not have to leave Canada AT ALL to submit an outland app. They can submit it from inside Canada and list their Canadian address on the app. The inland guide even recommends that people in Canada submit outland to take advantage of the faster processing times.

Ok. What VO a parent living in Canada (let's say on parent visa) with his/her child should chose as "his" VO for an inland sponsorship process?

There is no inland option for parent sponsorship.

Yea.. you are right. They changed the form in Feb 2015 and there is no Inland or overseas process anymore. It looks now CIC decides.

CIC does not decide between inland or outland. There are 2 entirely separate application packages for each option, with different forms and requirements. The applicant chooses inland or outland. If they choose outland, then CIC will decide which VO to send the app to.

Quick question about form imm5710E, App. to Change Conditions.

Under the "Details of Intended Work in Canada" it wants me to list my potential employer. I am currently on a post-grad work permit that is set to expire. I am not sure if I will remain with this employer or move to another. I am applying for an Open Work Permit, so do I have to fill out this section? Should I fill it in with my current employers info?

Thanks!

No, you do not need to put an intended employer. Put N/A or Open Work Permit.
