Expert Answers

Will my Canadian post-graduation work permit change if my passport expires before it would end?

If your passport expires before your PGWP would end, IRCC issues a new post-graduation work permit that matches your passport expiry date. Apply to change conditions or extend your stay at least 30 days before your permit expires, after getting a new passport. Check the IRCC page.

Is an open work permit different from an employer-specific work permit in Canada for me?
