April 3, 2019
The instructions have been updated to remove the cumulative duration section, per the repeal of paragraph 200(3)(g) of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Regulations (IRPR).
An application in progress is no longer subject to cumulative duration, whether it is work with a permit [R200] or without a permit [R186].
The page “Temporary Foreign Worker Program: Cumulative duration (four-year maximum eliminated)” has been deleted.
