Hello everyone,

Here is my situation.

My post graduate work permit will expire on May 21, 2012.
My PR application under the CEC category was rejected.
I am applying again under common law on May 1st, 2012.
My employer can submit an LMO and apply for a regular work permit as PGWP can't be renewed. (However, I don't want to be stuck with one employer).
I have a job for now, but I am an interpreter and I like to continue to work as a freelance interpreter.

Here is my question.

1. If I submit my application for PR under common law, will I have an implied status so I can continue to work (based on my PGWP)? Or should I also submit my application for an LMO and then work permit as well? (then it is closed work permit, isn't it? so I can't work as a freelance interpreter).

2. My SIN and health card will be expired (expire on May 21) but there is nothing I can do about it, right?

Thank you so much for your advice! I can't thank enough! Thank you and thank you!:)

I read somewhere that if I submit my application for PR and application for work permit, the government processes my PR application first and then work permit. I am not sure if this is correct or not. Anybody?
