Hi, I am in similar situation like you. I read from somewhere about this. I am working as a nurse and there is no restriction on my workpermit. Even I also I didn’t done the medical while applying pgwp. Is that ok? Are you still working in health care field?Hi.... guys .................... where are the conditions written on the work permit?
I am going to work as a nurse here in Ontario ....I didn't apply for the medical while applying for pgwp application and recently my application was approved.
But i cannot see anything written specifically for health care restriction employment?
They should be written at the bottom of the work permit in fine prints.Hi, I am in similar situation like you. I read from somewhere about this.

Did you get a new date of issue or they just removed the condition?Just an update on my post above... We went to the US border to flagpole and it was a SUCCESS! More information below if needed.
My girlfriend, who is here from Finland on a one year working holiday visa, had restrictions for working in the medical field/with children despite taking all the steps to have those removed before she came here. After many phone calls and emails it seemed our only option was to apply to have them removed via the links on CIC's website. After coming across this forum we decided to give 'operation flagpole' a shot, by going over the US border and appealing our case to the Canadian border officers on our way back in. They were able to remove the restrictions there and it took about 15 minutes as opposed to 5 weeks (minimum) so we were pretty stoked! A few things to note - they said with a working holiday visa they were only able to make the amendments because it was a mistake to have those restrictions on her visa in the first place. She had done her medical examination and criminal record check BEFORE she came and all those documents were accepted on her application, so those restrictions shouldn't have been there. If she was wanting to lift her restrictions after arrival they wouldn't be able to help.
Hope this information can be useful for someone out there! Thank you for your help Thronion Alb!
Did you get a new date of issue or did they just removed the condition from your work permit and kept the old date of issue?I did it.
Schedule appointment with a panel of physicians.
Go and make medicals.
Wait about one month.
Go and flagpole to the Usa border.
Its housekeeping but they are healthcare services. If u apply for a job there , u're application will be rejected due to this restrictions.
Hi, where you able to solve the situation and how did you go about it?I am currently in the same situation. Did my medicals again from canada now. What would be the better option to apply online or to flagpole when i want my work permit without those conditions ASAP
No . They said they can’t do anything about it. So applied online and no response yet.Hi, where you able to solve the situation and how did you go about it?
Hi, did you get the MOA position?Hi,
I am also in the same situation. I also have an open work permit with the same restriction. I wonder if I would be able to accept an offer as a medical office assistant (Moa) or should I get the restriction removed first. Thank you.
