question on Sch 1 (Form 0008)

[dfb]

For question 9, the second box asks whether the applicant has ever applied for a Canadian immigrant or permanent resident visa or a visitor or temporary resident visa? If I am a work permit holder in Canada, I assume the answer to this is NO. Is this correct?

My confusion comes from whether a work permit is considered a type of visitor or temporary resident visa.

Thanks

Actually the answer is yes, a work permit is just a visitor permit with the ability to work.

Thanks. I am glad I asked. I couldn't find a definition anywhere. So, I suppose, I just put that I am a work permit holder in the details section below with the details (I am now actually on my second 3 year work permit - I have just been too lazy to do the PR application)
