Was wondering what the Red Seal criteria is these days. Is it open to people without a PR? In this forum there was a discussion where someone said that it was open to applicants with a PR only except in Manitoba or something.

Does that mean that you cannot go for a Red Seal exam without having an institution sponsoring you?

Since I am from a visa free country and already have an ETA, I am thinking of going as a visitor to Canada and trying out interviews with employers in the Atlantic region. Since a LMIA is not needed there, it might be easier to convince employers to apply for sponsorship with the intention of...

Ok thanks. That's very helpful

So in that case why is a three year work permit better than a 1 year work permit for obtaining PR? Other than the time factor? Are there any more advantages in it that I am not aware of? Will be grateful if you shed some light on this.

Syclla I was wondering....Other than giving one more time to apply for PR, does the three year work permit have any other advantages? If the person got an offer of a permanent employment during just the 8 months of work permit, would that be sufficient? I have been looking to ask this question...

Yes that explains it. They have more candidates than they require so they need to filter out some.

I am just confused about something. Canadian government has made it easier than ever for students to enter Canada, finish studies and then apply for PR. They are doing this because they need people there. In that case why do they question the validity of the course? Isn't it given that the...

Not sure if a one year course will help you in PR. I may be wrong but I think that the courses have to be a minimum of 2 years to qualify for PR.

Not LMIA as in Atlantic States, LMIA is not necessary. Just for a permit to start working while the application for PR is in process.

lkva thanks for your info. I am quite aware of the process, maybe not perfectly but I know that my profession fits under NOC 0631 under which there are quite a few categories. However what I want to know is if my restaurant ownership experience will be accepted by them under this category. I...

How will I know whether they will accept my experience as a proprietor as a restaurant manager?

And the body I am interested is for Nova Scotia.

I had looked at this site before. Actually my field is restaurant management. I have been running my own restaurant for the past few years. I wanted to know how to use this experience assessed as a restaurant manager. There isn't any body for assessing in this field except health professions...

I was looking here on which bodies assess one's qualifications and experience. Couldn't find any. Any tips?

Like if a company has gone through the process of sponsoring a candidate for permanent residency and while the process is undergoing, to have the candidate work under a temporary work permit.

Anyone?

Really? Maybe you are right. In border patrol Canada I watched an episode in which a person explains that he is there to look for work and then they asked him if he would start working in Canada right away if offered the job to which he replied no I will apply for a work authorization first...

It should not even if it is a day short of the 6 month period I am sure.
