In this video, I'm gonna be showing you guys how to fill out this application to change conditions,
extend your stay or remain in Canada as a worker, and this is going to be
specifically for people applying for an open work permit in Canada. IMM 5710e.
If you do not know how to get this application, in the description area below, you're gonna see
a video I made that said "how to apply for an open work permit in Canada". You're gonna watch
that video and answer the eligibility questions to enable you to see the criterias or the people who
are eligible to apply for an open work permit within Canada. Once you watch that video and
answer the questions, you're going to get your form because it's going to be an online process
meaning once you finish answering these questions and uploading your form, you're gonna validate
and submit it online. So it's super important that you watch that part of the video. If you have then
let's keep going. So the first thing you need to do is input your UCI number. So for your UCI
number you're gonna find it on your study or permit under where it says country of citizenship.
If you do not have it or you do not know where to find it better leave it blank so that you
do not put a random number you're unsure of. So here you're gonna choose how you want service in.
Number 3 - You're gonna be applying for a work permit for the first time or with a new employer.
this could be someone trying to change their conditions right or they don't want to work for
a specific employer, they're trying to apply for an open work permit, something brand new right.
So personal details, you are going to provide your name,. If you've used a different name you're gonna
provide it down there. Here you're gonna choose, these are more like explanatory, so I'm gonna
be fast with this one because I wanna get to the point that is super super important, so sex, date of
birth, place of birth, you provide these details you can use this as a demo. Your country of citizenship,
you provide that, current country or territory of residence. So because you're applying within
Canada, your country or territory is going to be Canada and your status
is going to be as a worker. So this date here is when you got your first work permit or your
study permit depending, because, with the drop-down menu below, you can see the options here right.
So if you're renewing, then it's gonna ask you when you got the first one and when it's expiring; that's
where you're gonna put this information here. Number 8 - previous country or territories
of residence, if you have, you're gonna put yes and you provide the details here. If you've lived
outside of Canada for more than six months. Number 9 - When you're also answering
the eligibility questions, you're gonna see where all these things are gonna come in handy, meaning the answers you provide on there, be sure to put them on here as well super
important to remember that. Your current marital status, you're going to put single or married
and then you keep going so on number 10 have you previously been married or in a
common-law relationship, no or yes. Provide details below and the type of relationship. Language,
you're going to put your native language and if you're able to communicate in English or in French.
Then your passport number, for this option, your country or territory of issue; so sometimes when
you're in a new country let's say you move from your country I will use Nigeria for an example or
someone moving from India to Canada or Nigeria to Canada; if you're within Canada your passport might
expire and you have to renew it so once you renew it that means automatically you renewed it
in Canada. So your country or authority of issue now is gonna be Canada, but if it's still valid and it
was issued in your country then you're going to put your country because it was issued in your
country but if you've renewed it within Canada you put Canada, date it was renewed or issued and
the current expiring date. I just put this date on it's already expired just making up this
numbers here. And then a national identity document. If you have one you provide yes if you don't leave
it as no. US PR card - Also when you're answering the eligibility questions, if you provided yes then
you're going to provide the document number below, if no leave it as no. Here you're going to provide
your contact information, your current mailing address, you provide all your details and then
if your residential address is the same as your mailing address you just click yes if no
click on no and provide the details here. Then Number 3 is gonna be your telephone number
and your email down here. You can put an alternate email if you have one or your fax number
if you have one. So coming into Canada, date, and place of your original entry to Canada,
you're going to provide that detail here. The original purpose of you coming to Canada; if
you came in as let's say a spouse of someone or dependent child of someone based on the video
I said you guys should watch in the description area below then if you came in as a worker
to work, then you're gonna use that. If you came in as a student then you're gonna provide that
details as well. Then the place where you landed, date and place of your most recent entry
to Canada, if you have one. If applicable provide the document number of the most recent visa
visitor record, study permit, work permit. So this is gonna be if you already have a work permit and
then you're trying to like renew a new one then you're gonna provide that document number here.
So this is where i want you guys to pay very very good attention. So details of intended work in
Canada what type of work permit are you applying for, so like I said at the beginning of this video
this is gonna be an open work permit, if you click on that, there are other options; co-op work
permit, exemption from, this is what we are focusing on, open work permit, another type of open
work permit is the postgraduate work permit. I also stated that in the other video so once you
provide that information, the good thing I want you guys to understand about an open work permit is
it's a type of work permit where you can work for any employer in Canada meaning
that once you put open work permit you do not provide the name of the employer here
you do not provide the address, you're not gonna put the intended location of employment in Canada.
so once you provide details of intended work in Canada, number 1 to 5, you are gonna leave it blank.
your background information, so here you're just gonna read and answer these questions
What I need you guys to do if you're watching this video you can pause
and then see how I kind of filled out some of this information and then use it as a demo to
fill your own application form. So on this part instead of no, I said yes and why is that, have you
previously applied to enter or remain in Canada, if you answered yes to question 2a or 2c provide
details I said I applied to study in Canada but if you did not just click on no right and then you
answer all the remaining questions till the end and once you've done that you're going to validate
and then go back to the application that you created if you don't know how to go through that
process, go to the description area you will see that video that I made. You validate upload to your
online application portal and that's where you're gonna provide the remaining documents based
on your personal checklist and you submit your application and that is how to fill out
