Do I need to have the employment contract notarized? I've noticed that there is a difference between CIO and local visa office's checklists, and whether to have documents like employment contract and degree diplomas notarized is not consistent. What do you suggest? Thanks very much.

Thank you Dr.Hasib. Your example of medical science is very clear. But in my case I am an EDITOR. I have contract that shows the duration of 3 year and a half, but in reality the last half of my 4 years experience didn't show in the contract, it was a de facto employment relationship. And my...

I know that from June 26, 2010 you have to send all application documents directly to CIO instead of local visa office. However, does this include some discretionary/supporting documents? For instance, I want to include some publications that can support my case as strong evidence of my...

Thank you! I love this forum and people here. It is wonderful and so helpful!

Thank all of you! When I fill out "N/A", do I need to fill it into EACH boxes, or I only need to choose to fill the biggest box of each column and leave the rest boxes of that same column blank? :'( Call me stupid but I really want to know the truth. Many thanks.

Can you confirm this? I really am concerned that my application will be returned just because I failed to fill out this section correctly. So for imm008 page 2, if I am single and no other relative accompanying me, I can fill "N/A" in all 3 fields, and don't need to put my own information to...

On page 2 of form imm008 there is a "details of family members" section, for the entire page. I am single and there is no accompanying relatives with me. Should I fill out this page with my own personal information and fill out the rest two columns with "N/A"? Or should I fill out every columns...

Does it require you also fill out information of yourself? I'm single and I'm ready to fill out "N/A", but not sure if I should also fill out information of myself on page 2 of imm008 for "details of family members". Many thanks.

I am expecting to go through skilled worker arranged employment offer route. Is there any requirements regarding eligible employer? Do they have to have been established for a certain amount of time before they can hire foreign workers? Do they have to be incorporated? On CIC website there is no...

Hi rubyalabar, thanks for replying. I have a PGWP so I don't have a previous LMO. Does it mean I will have to leave Canada the day my PGWP expires? Is there anyway that I can temporarily delay this leaving while waiting for my LMO and work permit? I really don't have much time left, every minute...

Hi there. Can anybody advise me about how long I can stay after my work permit expires? Should I leave immediately or is there a period of time that I can apply for a new one? I've searched the CIC website but it seems not there. Thanks.

I am a newbie to Live-in caregiver and I've already found an employer who is willing to hire me. Can anybody help advice about the chance of getting a positive LMO today? I am male and I am already in Canada, will this affect the result? And how to prove my one year previous health-care related...

Can anyone help give a rough estimate on the current chances/statistics of getting a positive LMO for live-in caregiver? And usually how to prove that the caregiver has one year health-care related employment experience? Is written contract required or optional? Many thanks!

Just one more follow-up here. Do you think gender (I'm a male) will negatively affect LMO, and the overall process? Is LMO a pure chance event or there are some factors that I can facilitate it?

Thank you very much for your advice, which is very insightful. Can somebody holding a visitor's visa and being within Canada already physically apply to the live-in caregiver program without leaving Canada? Is it required to apply from your home country's consulate, i.e. Beijing? I'm already in...

Recently I've talked with an immigration consultant and he told me that live-in caregiver program has numerous drawbacks and "pitfalls", and he implied that maybe in the near future it will be eliminated from the current immigration regime altogether. Is this reasonable or just his opinion? Can...
