Low Skill Pilot Project

I work in Quebec and I want to extend how long I can work under my work permit. What should I do?

Your employer must apply for a LMO renewal from Service Canada and a Certificate of Acceptance (CAQ) from the Quebec government for your job. (See Immigrate and settle in Québec – Temporary workers in the Related Links section at the bottom of the page.) Include a copy of the LMO, CAQ and a new signed employee-employer contract with your application to extend your work permit to the CIC processing centre in Vegreville, Alberta.

For more information on the Pilot Project for Occupations Requiring Lower Levels of Formal Training (NOC C&D) see Human Resources and Social Development Canada in the Related Links section at the bottom of the page.
