Dear [requester],
My name is (RCIC License », and I am writing regarding a client’s open work permit (OWP-PGWP).
Specifically, their OWP does not list any conditions restricting them ftom working in healthcare, childcare, or other
‘occupations that typically require a medical examination,
I would greatly appreciate clarification on the following:
1. Authorization to Work in Healthcare/Childcare
© Given that no restrictions are listed on my client’s OWP, may they legally work in healthcare, childcare, or any
occupation that would normally require a medical exam without first undergoing a new medical examination?
2. Procedure for Ensuring Compliance
© If there is still a requirement to complete an immigration medical exam, even when the OWP does not explicitly
state a restriction, could you please direct me to the relevant process or instruction (e.g., whether an “amendment”
of status is needed or if they must apply to remove any implicit conditions)?
3. IRCC Guidance
© Are there any official IRCC publications or program delivery instructions that clarify whether an OWP without a
listed restriction automatically grants the holder the right to work in these fields?
Any guidance or references to IRCC’s official instructions would be most helpful, | want to ensure my client remains fully
compliant with Canadian immigration regulations and provincial employment requirements.
‘Thank you in advance for your time and assistance. I look forward to your response
Sincerely,
002206
