How can I apply for work permit while here in visitor status

[deecajun]

Can someone tell me if I can apply for my temporary work visa from inside of Canada while I am here on Visitor status?

I have a positive LMO and all my documents ready to go.

Thanks for any help!

You can send your initial application to the US, either Buffalo or Seattle.

I am currently under implied status in Canada and I have applied for a WP out of buffalo. I have received the letter of authorization as well as the W-1 visa(TRV) in my passport. Do I still have to leave the country to activate the work permit/get the work permit issued or can I just go to the Niagara Falls Border and get have the work permit issued there? Your help is greatly appreciated.

You can go to the closest border and pick up your WP from there.
