CIC ends processing of work permit extensions filed concurrently with pending LMO applications
Until recently, a work permit extension application (for a NOC 0, A, or B occupation), which required an approved Labour Market Opinion ("LMO"), could be filed concurrently with a pending LMO application. However, in July 2010, Citizenship and Immigration Canada ("CIC") posted a notice on its website indicating that concurrent filing would no longer be permitted.
