Yes they can and do, see Scylla's replies. I have had a similar experience. I had to leave Canada for a family emergency with an expired PR card a few years ago. When I came back, I had prepared a list of my travels (with supporting documentation) for the preceding 5 years to show I met my RO...

Vivek, You are asking about recruitment consultants. The OP asked about Immigration consultants. They are not the same thing.

This is true For low skilled workers in the accommodation, food services and retail trade sectors in economic regions with an unemployment rate at or above six percent. Your NOC code appear to be skill level O, which is classed as higher skilled. So this does not apply...

That will depend upon your income. There is a calculator here for Federal benefit: http://www.cra-arc.gc.ca/bnfts/clcltr/cctb_clcltr-eng.html

You can't extend an IEC permit. You can change to visitor status to remain in Canada longer. When does your permit expire? You could ask your employer to apply for an LMIA & get another work permit. If you have/will have 1 year work experience in Canada, at skill level A B or O, you could...

Answered on your duplicate post in the settlement forum.

Here are the processing times: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/times/temp/workers.asp Is the job LMIA exempt or not? Depending on the answer to the above, follow the links on this page to find out what is needed for your application: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/hire/worker.asp

There are very specific requirements for the LMIA application process. I suggest you have a read of the process for agricultural workers: http://www.esdc.gc.ca/eng/jobs/foreign_workers/agriculture/index.shtml

Not if you are a PR (or citizen).

So, am I to extrapolate from your comment that a company which NEEDS to fill a job vacancy, but is unwilling to go though the LMIA procedure, can fill said job vacancy (probably multiple times over) with citizens, PRs, OWP/PGWP etc holders? If so, I rest my case.

BUT, with all due respect, it's not about earnings. It's about the reality of what and who is necessary/required on the Canadian job market. Ask yourself this: if your work permit expired tomorrow, would your employer be able to replace you? (Hint: perhaps with another PGWP holder?) If the...

This is not true. As the OP has specialised skills, I would strongly suggest s/he research companies and opportunities requiring these skills and approaching them. I would NOT be sitting around waiting for the job-matching facility of the Job Bank to be activated. I'd be making sure my LinkedIn...

+1. First, if any company/agency/consultant service is advertising "help" with immigration procedures, you should verify if they (or the individuals working for them) are registered here: http://www.iccrc-crcic.ca/home.cfm?setLanCookie=En It is a legal requirement for them to be registered...

It's all about intent. Once one has landed as a PR, one is free to live anywhere in Canada. I know of one case, in the business/investor category (Quebec) where PR was revoked (see Canlii.org) because it was clearly proven that the person in question never intended to reside/run business in Qc...

I can only speak for myself :). I am not unhappy in Quebec, I wouldn't have stayed nearly 19 years if I were!! Healthcare is not at all as bad as it is made out to be. I have found it excellent, albeit with long waiting times, *sometimes*, for non-urgent matters. Over the years, family members...

1. A job offer is a valid reason to move. 2. There is no point registering with RAMQ if you sure you will be moving: there is a three month waiting period, and you must be resident in Qc to qualify. 3. https://www.ontario.ca/home-and-community/newcomers 4. ??!

Best post on the thread! :D

I'm quite amused at the idea of PMM saying what ever thought comes to mind & being misleading ;). However, I digress. Here's the link: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/resources/evaluation/fswp/section4.asp I quote from the report:
