    AEO (Arranged Employment Opinion) vs. LMO (Labour Market Opinion)

    Hi Everyone, This is a question that has crossed my mind. On the CIC website, they use two distinct terms; AEO and LMO. Are these terms used interchangeably? Or, could it be that one is more stringent than the other when it comes to getting a job offer validated by HRSDC? I know for a fact...

    I got my Visa

    Hello. It is good to hear such an inspirational success story. But, I am puzzled by one thing. Why did your case have to wait for LMO? Is it not true that software positions are not subject to LMO? I found the following link where they mentioned that some software jobs are exempt from LMO...

    LMO Exempt Jobs: Contradictions in CIC Policies or My Misunderstanding?

    Hi PMM. You gave examples of Microsoft and Nortel. But there are plenty of other software companies in Canada. Are you saying in general software jobs in Canada are not LMO exempt? CIC could have then specified some company names like Microsoft, Nortel, as having privileges to hire people...

    Hello Everyone, I would like to draw the attention of yours to some particular categories of jobs. Some jobs are in great demand. Canada is suffering skill shortage in those jobs and desperately needs to fill those positions in, so much so that those jobs are exempt from LMO (labour market...

    Transitional Instructions from the Ministry - Good News for Some FSW Applicants?

    Hello Everyone, Since no one brought this topic up, I thought I would do it. It seems CIC is treating all applications in terms of 3 distinct periods. 1. Applications submitted before Feb 27, 2008; 2. Applications submitted during the period Feb 27, 2008 - Nov 28, 2008; and 3. Applications...

    Do NOC's in "Classified Elsewhere" under the list of 38 NOC's qualify ?

    Hello Everyone, This is my first post ever. How do the CIC officers handle the cases filed with NOC 0213 and 2173? Do they see 0213 and say, "buddy, you are in", or 2173 and say, "buddy, you are out"? I think not. They first read the job descriptions in plain English written by the applicants...
