Hi Everyone,

While applying Canadian citizenship, there is a question on visa status before becoming a PR in 2018.

In my situation, I came as dependent on work permit holder in 2015.I applied for open work permit which expired in 2017.I dint renew after that. So, I am not sure of status between 2017 and 2018.In my passport category mentioned is "IM-1 IMMEGRANT". How would I find out the visa category? Which option should I select?

During your 5-year eligibility period, did you have a valid temporary resident status(opens in new tab) before becoming a permanent resident?
Options:

1) Visitor
2) Temporary Foreign worker
3) International Student
4) Temporary resident permit holder
