Open Work Permit Application Wants Details of Intended Work?
Hiya,
My partner will be studying in Canada for a year and I am taking a year out of uni to go with him. I would like to be able to work but dont have a job yet so I am applying for an open work permit (I am a British citizen and working holiday visas have all been taken for this year
).
The form allows me to check 'open work permit' but then requires me to add a work address, job title and description. What should I put? - it wont validate if I leave them blank and N/A is too short for a description.

Also I cant find an e-mail to ask anyone as the only email address says I must have already submitted an application to contact them.

Hey
It may be different but for a working holiday visa (open also) you need to fill them details in too otherwise like you say the form will not validate. The instruction given are to write IEC for Details of Intended Work in Canada (i'm sure you can think of something relevant for you) and unknown for details of prospective employer and job description.
I'd think it would be the same but i'm sure someone else will be along shortly to confirm

They will just want to know whether you're likely to be working in healthcare/or with children in which you case you would need a medical. I think it wouldbe ok to write "unknown" in those boxes (unless you are in the healthcare field)
