As the date for the availability of the Open Work Permit for H-1B visa holders draws closer, so do the queries and questions we keep receiving! So, we thought it would be best to throw some light on these frequently asked questions!
How long is the work permit going to be valid for?
Once approved, you will receive an open work permit of up to 3 years in duration! That means you can work for any employer, anywhere in Canada! This work permit provides you with the opportunity to explore different job opportunities and gain valuable cross-cultural work experience during your stay in Canada.
What happens if my passport is about to expire before the 3-year period?
In such a case, you will receive a work permit for the duration of which your passport is valid! It’s important to ensure that your passport is valid for the entire duration of your intended stay in Canada. If your passport is set to expire before the 3-year period, it is advisable to renew it before applying for the open work permit. This will help ensure that you can enjoy the full benefits of the work permit without any interruption.
What can I do in case my spouse is working, or my dependent children are going to go to university soon?
In that case, your spouse and dependent children are eligible to apply for a temporary resident visa with a study or work permit, as per their requirement. This allows your family members to join you in Canada and benefit from the opportunities available. Your spouse can obtain a work permit while your dependent children can pursue their education at Canadian universities.
