I dont see many options for you I'm affraid 'Reminder: You must maintain a valid work permit throughout the AINP application and assessment process. Only applicants under the Strategic Recruitment Stream Engineering Occupations Category are exempt from this requirement. If you are unable to...

Are you still on a work permit now? You can always go for the interview but will have to wait for positive LMIA before applying for work permit (if it expired)

Yes, as far as i know if your employer applies for an LMIA to support your PR then its free. I dont know much else about it and im sure it still takes 3-4 months but its like gold if you can get it

The NOC types dont matter anymore for Express Entry.

Even if its a new government...do you really think that it will matter? Policies are made in expensive restaurants or smokey back rooms by the elite donor class who spend money to protect their interests...

Thats where you have got to be careful as when they process your application they might pick up on that fact. Did your employer spend $1000 to get you a short term LMIA? Why dont you get a free consultation with an Immigration consultant/lawyer and see what they say? If they think your're...

Yes, get your application moving ASAP Your employer should be able to hire you after your contract ends, if you get a work permit and if he wants to hire you. How come your contract is ending so soon?

I think its got to be a full time job offer. So if its contract based then im not sure. Did you get LMIA for PR only?

The new program is here because of the elections!

Who says that they are old and uneducated? How old is old? I'm in my 30's and have no university education yet I have acquired a set of high quality skills from 18 years 'in the field' that so impressed my employers that they bent over backwards to get me an LMIA. (By the way i have a skilled...

Good answer +1 point

For sure. They might have to wait until April or May but i think the bottom score will be 400-500s even lower

It seems that only 1 in 4 people are getting picked from the pool each draw. The first draw there was 3000 in the pool! out of 10,000 applicants! These numbers do not look good for lower scoring people. It means that, if we take the first draw, 2221 people are back in ready to enter the pool...

yes but only 26% of the applicants were successful. That's 1 in 4 people who had the 800+ were lucky leaving the others still in the pool. 10,000 applied so 30% of those had the LMIA or PNP because they got in. Its going to take a while for the LMIA and PNP to get filtered out of the pool at...

There is a 70% failure rate for LMIA at the moment. These things are hard to get especially as employers will want to see you working with them before they decide to invest and get you the LMIA. If the numbers start to go below 800 then the LMIA's are beginning to fall away. There will always...

Justice?? what are you...crazy? University degrees are a dime a dozen here man....just because one has a degree doesnt automatically make one better than a 'non educated' person. ITS ALL ABOUT THE JOB If you can get a job and impress your boss so he gets you an LMIA and you are filling a...

I'm afraid it wont help at all. The LMIA is a totally different entity and is largely defendant on what type of job you are looking for and where you want to work (live). If the job sector has a skills shortage and your boss is struggling to find a Canadian to fill the position, after...

I believe that once the cut off score is at 700 then most of the LMIA's that were rushed through due to the CECcap will have been processed. Then we should see a drastic reduction of that cut off number as 600 points will be missing in over half entries. But this will only last for a while i...

There is no cap on LMIA.......they are just very hard to get

LMIA's are gold right now and there is a whole lot of people not getting them so i think once the early LMIA holders have been processed in the first couple of months then i can see the score dip for a while. But make no mistake, i see the LMIA's getting a little easier then and the scores will...
