submit the RCC Web form.
Please see our response to your question:
Question:
A follow-up question with a hypothetical situation:
If [requester] holds both a valid Post-Graduation Work Permit (PGWP) with no restrictions on occupation or employer anda
valid LMIA-based work permit restricting him to work only for ABC INC, which permit's conditions take precedence, and how
should he comply with the conditions of each permit while both are valid?
Response:
As noted in the previous response, a work permit holder can hold 2 valid work permits at the same time until it expires as
long as they meet the conditions listed on each work permit.
An open work permit permits the holder to work for any employer and an employer specific LMIA work permit permits the
holder to work for that employer only. Ifa person holds both types of work permits, there is no one that exerts more
precedence over the other. The holder must comply with the conditions on both work permits.
Thank you kindly,
[requester]
