Open work permit no longer included with APRC

[quote=“Quarters”]I just changed my JFRV to an APRC. When I went to go pick it up, they told me I no longer have working rights and that I would need to apply for a work permit seperately from my APRC.

WTF?!

They told me this is a new law as of this year.

Can anyone confirm that they also had to apply for a separate work permit when they got their APRC?[/quote]

Wasn’t that always the case with an APRC, you had to separately apply for an open work permit?
