Re: Online work permit application vs wait for lifting of restrictions?

As an update to this, I applied using the online service for my work permit and had a really quick turnaround luckily. I applied for my work permit on the 25th July, received my biometric instruction...

Re: Online work permit application vs wait for lifting of restrictions?

Ah OK, that makes sense, it's certainly not easy this - lots of information all over the place and it's easy to miss or misunderstand something... especially with all the new covid rules muddying the...

Re: Online work permit application vs wait for lifting of restrictions?

Ah, perhaps that was what was meant. So I will be need to be a bit aware of that then, especially if the VAC in London stays closed. I could end up with an online application that I can't biometrics...

Re: Online work permit application vs wait for lifting of restrictions?

Ah good, I thought that I had it correct. Of course Covid has had an effect on the whole process, so things clearly aren't normal at the moment. I accepted the job just before Christmas, and got my...

Re: Online work permit application vs wait for lifting of restrictions?

Ah OK, so am I misunderstanding the 'normal' (pre covid) way then? I thought that ordinarily, after PNP nomination and collecting information for the work permit, you would fly into Canada and get...

Re: Online work permit application vs wait for lifting of restrictions?

ah, so this may be good news... see below, but I've been approved for PNP, so trying to work out the best way and don't want to get trapped waiting for online approval :) 18 weeks was a figure that...

Online work permit application vs wait for lifting of restrictions?

Hi everyone, was doing some reading and I read somewhere in the last few days that if you apply online for a work permit, then you aren't then able to apply at the border? Is this correct, as if so...

Re: Successful PNP - Work permit application and biometrics?

So after much hunting around and trying to figure things out on Saturday I managed to work it out. The crucial piece of information that I was missing and wasn't mentioned anywhere was that when I...

Thanks, another good source, been trying to read everything and keep track of it all, and it ain't easy at the moment!

Re: Successful PNP - Work permit application and biometrics?

I missed that! I just went and searched straight for the UK, assuming that I'd have to do it before hand... So perhaps all is not lost!

So I'll be able to fill out all the work permit forms here...

Re: Successful PNP - Work permit application and biometrics?

Damn... so I still can't get my work permit anyway until they reopen the VAC?

God knows when that will be, but there must be a way surely, as they have said that they are accepting you if you've...

Thanks, that's a really useful reference to the docs and info I need to complete my application and not one I'd found up to now.

Re: Teaching time count for FST Visa?
