Visitor Visa to Work Permit thru Flagpoling after Aug 28, 2024

[dustincarlisle]

Hi Everyone,

Can somebody share your flagpoling experience when you changed your status from Visitor to Work Permit Holder please? This is after IRCC ended the public policy allowing visitors to apply work permit inside Canada.
Was someone got rejected? If yes, what grounds?

Thank you and best of luck to everybody.

If you don't qualify for flagploing, they won't process your application. Since it's a land border crossing, you will always be allowed to enter Canada with conditions unless it's something extreme and then you can be detained.

With conditions refers to a TRP or a date will be provided before which you will have to leave Canada. It'll give you an opportunity to apply inland and restore your status.
