    Work Visa Denied (Thanks HRSDC)

    The first time i aplied for an LMO was in September. I got a refusal on December 15th, because my employer didn't include enough proof of "Looking for a Canadian alternative" So we had to reapply for everything at the very last moment again. Last year, my LMO application took a total of 2...

    LMO Processing Time Ontario

    Even if you haven't gotten your LMO yet, CIC will hold your file for 2 months. I got unlucky enough that HRSDC didn't add tracking number yet, so my Visa got denied and now i am out of a job (overnight) But if HRSDC put in a tracking number, you have a 2 month waiting period

    Work Visa Denied (Thanks HRSDC)

    Yesterday i received my letter. MY work visa is denied, because i did not receive my LMO (yet) It took CIC 2 weeks to process my application and it takes HRSDC over 2 weeks to open their mail and give me a confirmation number. Due to this, i'm fucked. I had to call my boss this morning saying...

    Relationship Proof: Already in Canada

    About Berlin: Their timeslines on the website are long, but every story i hear is that they are superfast when your application is in order. That's the Germans for you i guess. I know Canada's Immigration system is fair, it's just too bad they cannot decide if they want Skilled Fertile...

    Relationship Proof: Already in Canada

    Coming from Holland all this work is mindblowing. In Holland all you have to do is eat your passport on arrival and you are good for about 18 years

    Relationship Proof: Already in Canada

    I've gone through all the forms, but it seems that every time you read them you discover something new. We've been living together for 2 years, but absolute solid proof is only available from 1 year back. (The deed to our house) before that she was just renting an apartment and i was paying for...

    LMO Processing Time Ontario

    Thank you sir! It was sent to HRSDC on the same day i re-applied for my TWP online (December 29th) but as of January 13th, they haven't even seen the package yet, so i don't have a #number yet. After they posted my job, they had 8 reactions but none of the applicants had the right resumes. I...

    Relationship Proof: Already in Canada

    Hi all, Here's another Relationship Proof topic. I've read all the others and they seemed to be more "She's living here, he's living there" kinda thing. In my case, i've been living here for 2 years already (Living together) and we have all our stuff together (Taxes, Mortgage, Insurance, Bank...

    LMO Processing Time Ontario

    Man HRSDC is Headache City for me. My first LMO got denied (after 14 weeks) because my employer didn't fully meet the advertising requirement. I had to cancel my application for my TWP and reapply as late as possible (December 29th) so my employer could advertise and re-apply for an LMO. They...

    HRSDC blocking extension of Work Visa

    Can anyone tell me the reasoning why HRSDC is making such a fuss about the extension of a Work Visa? I have held my job for almost two years now, but i have to keep applying for temp visas until my PR is done (Which takes forever) in the meantime i got engaged here and pretty much have my entire...

    Work permit denied - Restoration of Status?

    it depends, is your current Visa still valid or are you already over that date? In my case, it's valid until December 31st, so i can just restart my application. If your current Visa already expired, i have no advice for you. I do however share your frustration with HRSDC.

    Work permit denied - Restoration of Status?

    I have the exact same issue. Here's what you can do. Cancel your current application for your extention. (Assuming your current one is still intact) Apply for new LMO. At the very last moment, reapply for your Visa, putting you on the bottom of the pile, extending your Implied Status. (Online...
