Hello everyone,

I am currently in canada with a 6 visitor visa that is valid for 6 month. Before coming here I applied for a working holiday visa at the IEC office but got refused because there were no more places available. I didnt think I would get in the program this year so I came to canada as a visitor.
2 weeks back I got the confirmation that a place got.free and I was accepted. I applied and got my "conditional letter of acceptance" and with that I have to apply at the CIC for a working holiday visa.
The problem is that all the forms are to apply from outside canada and I am not sure how I can apply from within. I wouldnt wantn go back to germany and apply, just to come back in necause that just seems overly complicated.

How is the best way to do it? Do i have to flag pole at the border or completely leave the country?

I appreciate every answer that helps!

Just apply from Canada, just make sure you put Germany as your country of residence. You will receive your letter of introduction electronically and go to the border to get your open work permit
