    Well, I was asking the OP as I didn't think any immigration category would require such a high score. Maybe he's talking about CLB level, which is still high for level 8. I think they just require CLB 7 for NOC 0 or A under CEC, NOC B should be even lower...

    IELTS Listening

    You mean 8 in IELTS?? That's really high. I don't think native speakers can achieve this w/o intensive training. What immigration category are you applying under?

    BOWP - How many of you have applied and received it successfully?

    I'm not familiar with LMO's. So you think the LMO has some bounding effect for the employer to honor the contract? Maybe you are right, as at the very least if they spend so much effort to get you the LMO, they have a lot of incentive to keep you that long... The contracts I have had all have...

    BOWP - How many of you have applied and received it successfully?

    It looks like they are only approving those with new job offers if current WP is valid for over 4 months, which suck for people who lose their current job...

    June 2013 Applications

    I thought you're supposed to submit RCMP certificate with the application so I did... Looking at other threads here I think Jan/Feb applicants are getting MR's right now... Of course if we are getting MR's soon it'd be awesome!

    You can try to call them to inquire your application status. That's what I did when I decided to get the good news or bad news, so I could prepare either way. Good luck!

    BOWP - How many of you have applied and received it successfully?

    Well, this is kind of a long story from the negotiation process. Apparently this company hasn't recruited any foreign nationals in the LMO era, and HSDRC (or w/e its name is) scared them away by asking for 15 different things when they called them. So they'd rather wait a few months to let me...

    BOWP - How many of you have applied and received it successfully?

    Thanks, Kunishsa. I was reading this thread and found many refusals with WP > 4 months. In OB485A they talk about the people who are not eligible for BOWP: "Foreign nationals whose work permits are valid for longer than four months and/or already have a new LMO that can be used as the basis for...

    BOWP - How many of you have applied and received it successfully?

    I just called CIC and was told that my BOWP was sent out yesterday. My immigration lawyer submitted the paper application on Sep 27 with my new job offer, and my current WP won't expire until Aug 2014. I was reading this forum and thought my application might be refused... Looking forward to the...
