Work Permit Extensions
Overview
Apply to extend your work permit before it expires if you continue with the same employer or change employers according to permit conditions. In many cases you can remain in Canada under implied status while a timely extension is processed.
This page provides general guidance aligned with publicly available IRCC information and should be used as a starting point before a personalized assessment.
Who Can Apply
- Workers whose current permit is still valid or recently expired in limited cases
- Applicants who continue to meet work permit conditions
What You Should Know
Do not work in a new occupation or for a new employer without authorization. Bridging open work permits may be available when extending PR applications.
Eligibility Requirements
- Application submitted before expiry where required for implied status
- Updated job offer or employer compliance for employer-specific permits
- Continued admissibility
