I have a post doctoral position offer in Canada, currently in US. I am looking to move to Canada from US. I am concerned since my f1visa in us is expiring.
Has anyone going to canada from us recently obtained work permit at poe ? It says below that application for work permit at port of entry is possible, and I meet these requirements.

You cannot apply for a work permit at a
Canadian port of entry during this time unless you meet these 3 conditions:

Thanks! I currently meet all these requirements but wanted to see if anyone had a successful experience.

Do you have a TRV or are you visa exempt?
Visa exempt just need eta and have it

So yes flying to Canada should be possible with a confirmed job offer.
I was going to post this same question. My spouse and I have a pending PR application that has been delayed due to Covid. Because he’s a U.S citizen living in the U.S, I thought he could apply at a port of entry for a work permit. I called border services at least 10 times over the span of a week and got a few different answers on whether or not he could apply for one at the border currently. But when I spoke to senior agents they both said he could as long as he has a valid job offer. He’ll be applying for jobs over the next week. Let’s keep each other updated on our experiences!

Good luck to your family. I plan on crossing the border early October, will update.
WHen cic website say you are entering canada from united states, are they referring only to US Citizens & green holder rite ? Not people in US working on Visa ?

It is the latter. I am in US on visa, will be going to Canada soon from US.
But even you are entering from US to Canada, since you are not a US citizen or GC holder do you still need Canada work permit & Visa (Both) rite ? Not just offer letter or WP alone ?
