Hi,
Recently my visa got expired while being in canada and my consultant had put an extension which gives me implied status.
My question is can i flagpol on implied status when i have my LMIA in hand?

No. You can only flagpole with a valid TRV or work permit.

No you can’t flagpole as are on implied status. You need to wait for a response. Nothing to do but wait. What is the NOC?

You need a TRV to come back. You need a work permit to work. Did you apply for a TRV because extension is not a TRV. Apply for a TRV.

An extension is only to stay in Canada. You cannot flagpole without a valid TRV. Don’t even think you are eligible to flagpole with a TRV. Have you read the rules for flagpoling?


The following foreign nationals are permitted to Flagpole:
  1. Residents of visa-exempt countries with an LMIA-exempt job.
  2. Residents of visa-exempt countries in possession of a positive LMIA.
  3. Residents of the U.S., St. Pierre & Miquelon and Greenland.
  4. Residents of visa-required countries already in possession of a study or work permit (flagpoling for the purposes of renewal).

If we get the approved Visitor Extension and the TRV is expired then Can we do the flagpole or not?

Would not try it because you don’t have a valid TRV. An extension is only to stay in Canada. Once you leave, it is not longer valid.
