Documents Needed

  • Current work permit

    Not strictly mandatory to upload, but commonly included in additional documents, client information, work-related documents, or travel document sections alongside your passport.

Step-by-Step

A member asked where to upload their current work permit after receiving an Invitation to Apply (ITA).

What the thread clarified:
  1. There's no strict requirement to upload it at all — members noted you can add it to additional documents if you want, but it isn't mandatory.

  2. If you do choose to include it, there are several acceptable sections: the client information section, merged with your work-related documents section, or alongside your passport in the travel document section.


Practical takeaway: uploading your current work permit isn't mandatory after an ITA, but if you want to include it for a more complete file, any of the additional documents, client information, work documents, or travel document sections is an acceptable place — pick whichever fits your application portal's structure best.

Dos, Don'ts & Tips
