Temporary resident: Implied status (extending a stay)
Maintaining a status is of utmost importance for temporary residents. Be it a Visitor, Student or a temporary worker. This is primarily to maintain the respect for IRPA and maintain the discipline of Immigration requests.
However, the applicant can change plans during his stay as a temporary residence, but he must request for any change in previously approved conditions.
For example: if a visitor changes his mind and wants to extend his stay in Canada beyond the originally allowed 6 months, he must apply for Extending his stay as a Visitor. There are conditions that he needs to follow for that and submit a fresh application electronically
If they have done so, their period of authorized stay as a temporary resident is extended by law until a decision is made [R183(5)]. Such an individual is taken into account to possess implicit standing as a temporary resident throughout that period.
If a temporary resident applies for renewal of their work or study permit and their permit expires before a decision is made, paragraph 186(u) and section 189 of the Immigration and refugee Protection laws (IRPR) (the right to continue working or studying under a similar conditions pending a determination of their application for renewal) apply solely as long because the person remains in Canada.
Another option is that the applicant can apply for a new work or study permit at the port of entry (POE), in case they are eligible under IRPR. Temporary residents from TRV-required countries who are on implied status and are seeking re-entry to Canadafollowing a visit entirely to the USA or St. Pierre and Miquelon could apply for a brand new or later work permit at the writer, as they fall under the exception of subsection R198(1).
Note: it's powerfully suggested that, at the POE, the temporary resident should present the following documentary proof of their application:
- Copy of their application
- Copy of the fee payment receipt, etc.
- Current status document
- Required documents for oral application

"I cannot thank Stepwise Immigration enough for their help. I had an issue with my immigration work for which I needed professional help. The team did a stellar job in making my case and I am greatly indebted to them. I researched online and read a lot of reviews, and decided to choose Mr. Navjot as my consultant based on the extremely positive feedback from many of his earlier clients. I felt really comfortable dealing with him from the outset. He asked me questions, prepared my file and submitted it very efficiently. It was flawless and I was really confident.
