🧭 Your Work Permit Expires. Your Strategy Shouldn’t.

The date on your work permit is fixed. Your options don’t have to be. If your Canadian work permit is expiring in the next few months, the key question is not only “When does it end?” but “How do I keep working legally, and what is my long-term plan?” A short-term extension and a longer-term permanent residence strategy often need to be developed together, not one after the other. Many workers assume their employer will refuse to support them, but employers are often simply unsure what is involved. A clear conversation can help everyone understand what support might look like, what the timelines are, and whether options such as an LMIA or a new employer-specific work permit are realistic. Planning at least 6–7 months before expiry gives you time to review your eligibility, speak with your employer, prepare documents and avoid last‑minute pressure. Submitting an eligible extension application before your current permit expires may allow you to stay and continue working under maintained status, usually with the same conditions as your current permit, while a decision is made. An Express Entry profile or intention to apply for permanent residence does not by itself extend your status or give you the right to keep working.
