π¨ **WORK PERMIT EXPIRING IN CANADA? π¨π¦**
Before submitting your next application, make sure you understand these 3 important things!
β
**1. Are you eligible to extend?**
Not every work permit can be extended. Your eligibility depends on your circumstances and the type of permit you're applying for.
β
**2. Are you applying on time?**
IRCC recommends applying at least 30 days before your current work permit expires. Online submission deadlines are based on UTC, not your local time.
β
**3. Can you continue working while waiting?**
If you submit a qualifying work permit application before expiry, you may be authorized to continue working under the conditions of your original permit while remaining in Canada.
β οΈ Applying to change your status to a visitor does **not** allow you to keep working after your existing work permit expires.
Every immigration situation is different. Don't make assumptions about your legal status or employment authorization.
