Hi all,
I would appreciate any advice anyone can provide me on my situation.
I am currently on a work permit until next July. I am currently employed in the Construction Industry.
On the CIC website there is the following quote:
"1) If you are currently working in Canada:
your current employer must have made an offer to give you a permanent job if you are accepted as a federal skilled worker, and
your temporary work permit must be valid both when you apply for a permanent resident visa and when the visa is issued."
Does this mean that if I have not received PR by July then I cannot stay? Or will I get implied status?
Also if I apply for PR under my current Work Permit, then receive an LMO in 1-2 months time, will this count as a "different" visa, or will it be considered the "same" visa.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Colin
