On TRV and Employer is filing my LMIA

[roadrunner21]

Am here in Canada and luckily found a wonderful employer who is willing to sponsor me. They have filed my LMIA and just waiting for result. If positive, which is most likely positive because they have been advertising since December and couldnt hire anyone..we will apply for a work permit next. My question is can a work permit be applied thru online since i am already here in canada. I am from the Phils. Is there anyone here who has the same case as i am. Were u called for an interview in the embassy of ur home country and needed to exit for interview? Please share your experience.

Yes - you can apply for the work permit online once you have an approved LMIA. There won't be an interview - the work permit will either be approved or refused based on the application you submit.

Actually - are you applying to be a caregiver? In that case the answer may be different.

Yes am applying as a caregiver. So what could be the scenario if applying inside canada as a caregiver?
