If your passport expires before your PGWP should
Make sure your passport is valid for the entire length of time you should be eligible for. If your passport expires earlier:
- we’ll only issue you a PGWP that’s valid until your passport expires
- we’ll tell you if you need to extend it to get the full validity
You can only extend a PGWP if we tell you to. If this happens, you have to apply on paper to extend your PGWP so that it’ll be valid for the full length it should be.

Employment and Social Development Canada (ESDC) would need you to file for a Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA) before you could be considered for a work visa in Canada, since this is the most common method of applying for one.
It would therefore be the responsibility of the Canadian employer to conduct domestic recruiting efforts, unless the employer agrees that no Canadian permanent residents or citizens are eligible for the post in question. Following the issuance of a valid LMIA to the applicant, the applicant may proceed to submit an application for a work visa.
