Practical order

1. 1

   Use the current IRCC open-work-permit categories to identify the one category being considered, such as an eligible graduate, spouse, youth, vulnerable worker or another listed applicant.

   Open the linked category instructions and record the required status, relationship, program, application or vulnerability facts and the period for which the category applies.

3. 3

   Prepare passport and current status plus the exact school, family, principal-person, PR-application, employment or protection records named by the selected category.

4. 4

   Answer the live IRCC account questions for the selected category and retain the resulting work-permit checklist before completing forms.

5. 5

   Complete the application in the applicant’s own account, upload category evidence, pay IRCC directly and complete biometrics, medical or document requests by their dates.

6. 6

   Read the issued permit for occupation, employer-sector, location, medical, expiry and passport-linked restrictions before starting or changing work.
