Successfully Navigating a Work Permit Withdrawal
Our client approached us when her LMIA-based work permit was withdrawn by IRCC. After discussing the case with her, thoroughly reviewing her previous application package and the refusal letter, and conducting research, our legal team concluded that the withdrawal was made in error. We believed that the visa officer misunderstood the occupation she applied for and that our client was indeed eligible to apply for the work permit from inside Canada based on a temporary public policy.
We meticulously compiled a new application, ensuring that all forms were completed accurately and all necessary supporting documents were included. In addition, we crafted detailed legal submissions to clearly explain her situation and address the issues raised in her previous refusal.
A few months later, her application was approved, and she was granted a two-year work permit, allowing her to remain in Canada and start working for her new employer. We were very pleased to share the long-awaited news with our client and wish her all the best in her future endeavors.
