Hi Suvi - were you able to find your solution? I need to change my employer and was wondering if its possible. I am on a closed work permit (LMIA exempt) and just got a job offer from a my dream employer, Wondering if there is a way??? can you please help!
you can always send a web form with a priority code to inform IRCC about changing employer once you have sent a new work permit application
