Congrats. Thanks for the response!

I'm just wondering if they're processing any TRV applications for non-family members and tourism purposes at this moment. Based on all the responses I see on this forum, even apps for family members are a pain right now, I can't imagine what it's like for non-fam members AND tourism as the purpose.

My temporary resident status (after failing to get a new WP) expired on Jan 23. 2013 and I have 90 days to apply for restoration. I did so recently (beginning of March) but I was told that I may not get an answer before the date I used on the application. (the part where it asks till what date I...

As far I know, you will have an implied status as long as you've submitted the application prior the expiry date. Therefore, until a decision is made, you can stay. A CIC agent should have the answer for this.

I'd just like to know if anyone can offer me some assistance here. So, I'm on a work permit that won't expire anytime soon but my visitor visa expired on Feb 23, 2013 I've already applied for a new one on January 30, 2013 and back then it said processing time 14 days (now shows 26 days!) I still...

When it comes to "Funds available for my stay" - what would they consider as enough? The documents needed to support that states paystubs and employment letter amongst a few so I'll be scanning and sending that.

I know.

Wow, very brutal of CIC. Got an email last night telling me your resident status expires.... the same day. Thanks for the notice, gee. Now standard procedure... 90 days to restore my status or get the hell out of here. Employers in Ontario, my goodness, once they hear "Yes, I need an LMO.."...

Would it possible for apply that myself or do I go through my lawyer for that?

I have been looking for a jobs in the technical field (that's my background as well) -- meaning, entry-level computer technician..etc but most of them are contract jobs, so therefore not eligible for LMO. Tried job agencies; no luck at all. If only there was an easy way of looking up employers...

I guess it really doesn't make sense for me to stay with no income. I could always go back to school but then again, I heard you'd have to get a minimum a Master's Degree in order to secure the PR without a job (some pilot program that's going on now). But then again, Master's Degree for...

I'm In Ontario. I was looking into Nova Scotia's nomination program but getting a response for any resumes submitted is a hit or miss but mostly a miss.

Hello all, My PGWP expired last October and during the 3-year period of the PGWP, I worked a job that was in Skill Level C and only realized that with less than a year left on the PGWP (this error will forever haunt me). Unfortunately, my employer is a big co. and thus refused to get involved...

I have a friend who's a homebuilder in his country and has 8 months of work experience. No family in Canada but would just like to move to Canada for better opportunities. I've checked some nomination programs in various provinces as well as the Federal Skilled program but most say you'd need at...

Hello there, I finally found an employer who wants to do an LMO for me. (I've had quite a few reject the idea because they definitely want to avoid the additional responsibility/work) The problem is my PGWP is already expired and after the prospective employer spoke to Service Canada, he was...

Based on the form that I just saw, no way would I be able to fill that LMO for myself. I'd need their help to fill out all the data. Since my PGWP is expiring next month, it makes it even worse! Now what would you say if i'm currently in a level C class occupation, should I tell them that a...

I'm about to speak to my employer again and ask for an LMO to apply for a new WP. What's the best way to bring that up without making it look like they need to do a lot of work? I just have the impression they don't understand and just would say no because they'd rather not do the extra work...

Job market for IT jobs has been brutal. Hardly anyone is responding, even with changing the resume/cover letter and whatnot. Right now it's getting very bad for my situation. Time's running out. LMO processing time isn't exactly in my favour. 2nd challenge is of course asking the employer to do...

unfortunately getting an LMO in Toronto is extremely difficult if you're getting into entry level IT jobs. So due to an oversight of mine, I need to explore other options in getting my PR and have no problems moving.

That was my plan. I just wanted to know if anyone has gone through that same stream in NS and is willing to share their experience here. My other question is: although it isn't stated, does the job in NS have to be a skilled trade in 0, A or B level?
