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.

  2. 2

    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.
