Hello @legalfalcon
The extension of my OWP was approved while I was outside of Canada and the original document was mailed to my old address. When I returned to Canada, the officer did not print a new copy for me. I then applied by mail for the replacement of my permit and haven’t received a new one yet.
Therefore I do not have a copy of a valid OWP, even though it’s approved, and could not renew my SIN based on it. My SIN got expired on December 20th, 2020 with my pervious permit.
Can I continue working until I receive a replacement document from IRCC? Will this create any issues later on as my SIN will not be valid until I get the replacement document and get the SIN renewed?
I really appreciate your help.
Thanks so much
You have to have valid status in Canada. If your SIN expired, you can wait until your get your IRCC document. However, it will be your employer who will need a valid SIN on file.
