Hey all,
Here's the run-down of my situation.
I've opened a profile and submitted all my documents for PR back in October 2017. My score was a bit low due to not having any work experience outside of Canada (had just graduated high school when I came to study here) so I've been taking CELPIP tests ever since; just took my third one last Saturday.
I've been sitting at 439 points and I know I'm frustratingly close to getting into a draw but my post-graduate work permit is expiring at the end of December this year.
I've been trying to find out if i can extend my work permit even though I don't have an LMIA since according to my lawyer my permit exempted me and my employer from getting one.
Now I'm slowly starting to get full on panicked. Is it possible that there is no any other way possible to extend my work permit so I can fulfill 3 years of employment here in Canada?
I don't know what other options I have in case my newest CELPIP scores are not 9 or above. I know that PNP nomination is a possibility but a year long wait is way too long for me.
Thanks in advance.
