Good Day,
I am in the process of waiting for approval on my 2nd CSEP. I served 16 months on my 1st and then got a better opportunity.
My Questions:
1. Will I have to re-register my permission with immigration and get a new Stamp 1?
2. How long after receiving my approval will I have to register my permission with Immigration? 90 days?
3. How will this affect my spouse, as she is here on a Stamp 1g on my CSEP? Will she need to re-register as well?
Thank You

If you have 21 months by the time the permission issues, you can apply for your Stamp 4 IRP card then. If not, you’ll need to renew your Stamp 1 IRP card. Just to flag, I have seen the 21 months both accepted and denied if the applicant doesn’t have 21 months on their IRP card but has 21 months on the permits (i.e. the 21 months is currently being counted from the issue date on the first Stamp 1 IRP card. I have also heard this is due to change and go back to 21 months on the employment permit).

you should renew as soon as your CSEP issues. In particular, if you have travel planned you will could face a lot of difficulty traveling on an expired IRP card, especially if visa required.

she will receive another Stamp 1G when you have a Stamp 4.
