Section 3
Questions 7 to 24

Were you able to exercise your rights, living and working conditions, send a report to ESDC, open work permit for vulnerable workers.
Remember to think of your worst experience in Canada when answering these questions. When you find a box use that opportunity to say why you want permanent resident status because it protects you from exploitation. Give examples of where you were mistreated.
Section 4
Questions 25 to 35
This section asks demographic information such as level of education, country of origin, language you speak, gender. Please respond acordingly.
Section 5
Question 36 to 39
This part is about your interest in coming back to Canada, and if you would apply for Permanent Residency.
Use this section to reiterate why you want permanent residency for all and why you cannot apply, because there are no access to PR for some groups of migrant workers such as Farmworkers.
