Arrow How temporary is a TWP
I am in discussions to transfer from the uk arm of my company to Toronto. It is looking likely I will have to resign from uk and sign in Canada. I will be on a TWP so am nervous that government rules can change and I could lose TWP and my job and home as a result. I will clearly be applying for PR asap but would my TWP be permanent while I was with my employer or could I lose it before PR?

Thanks

Julie

I don't think a TWP can be revoked, it is valid for the length of time stated on it - obviously the rules could change and then you'd need to meet those conditions at renewal time.... If you got a two year TWP though, you should be able to get PR through in this time....

You can be sacked/made redundant when your on a TWP though.

Who is MIL?

Maybe we could share experiences over a coffee locally if they are going through the same?

You glad you did it?
