Hi, I am asking for my friend's family coming to AB on his full time ESL study permit from NAIT (Northern Alberta Inst of Technology). Two questions from him, and I don't have clear answers: If he studies here on a full time ESL study permit, 1. Can his wife get an open work permit based on...

I applied for AINP's Strategic Recruitment Stream (SRS) - compulsory trade based on AIT invitation letter. This category does not require sponsoring employer. However, I still need to maintain my legal status in Alberta. I got laid off recently and I am having hard time getting an employer to...

Hi, I am writing for my friend who is in a desperate and tough situation. He is a dryall worker in Edmonton. His work permit expired in Apr. He applied for LMO and work permit extension with the same employer before this expiry date. He was denied LMO but was adviced to re-apply for LMO which...

Thank you PMM for the correction. I corrected myself so he now has the right info. On the follow-up question: Can his son (who now lives in Korea) land sometime after the rest of his family have landed? That is, can he land separately from the rest of the family? Thank you once again.

Sorry, I needed to be a bit more specific here. The daughter is now 24 years old, and NOT a minor. Is it still possible for the mom to be an accompanying family member?

My friend just got his medical done for PR (AINP - AB provincial nominee). He has lived in Edmonton for three years and his AINP and PR applications were processed while working in Canada. He says that once he has the PR approval, he & family could land by going to the local CIC office and NOT...

Thank you both HMISABPK & Baloo for sharing your experience also for the caution.

Rather a simple question - Please advice. Can immig consultants (a CSIC member with id#) pay PR Application fee on my behalf? That is, I write him a check ($1,100) for myself and my wife in addition to the regular consulting fee he's charging me, and then he pays PR Application fee when...

I am helping out a friend from South Korea. She came to Canada in 2005 as a student (study permit), finished her study, did not return, and apparently lost her status. She got married in March 2009 to a Canadian citizen (a Korean Canadian), but her status is illegal based on her failure to...

I have mounting questions for going to the border (port of entry) for the work permit, but I'll summarize them in two questions. I would appreciate anyone's expert advice on these: I am in Alberta on an open work permit (dependent on my wife's work permit), which will expire in September 2010...

I live in Edmonton and my prospective employer will be applying LMO for my position. Once I have a positive LMO, should I be re-entering Canada (leave and re-enter at the port of entry, which would be in Montana) for my work permit. I am from Korea and have travel visa exemption. Thank you--

Thank you. That was helpful

I heard this from someone with a work permit (semi-skilled level) here in Alberta. He said there is a total of 4 year limit on work permit and you cannot extend beyond that point. Is this true? Does anyone know about this regulation? I thought you could keep extending work permit as long as...
