    Documents for work permit visa: From Bangladesh.

    Download the instruction guide in pdf available towards the bottom of this page: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/applications/work.asp Look at pages 8-9. It will tell you what documents you need. It is a good idea to read the entire guide though. Good luck!

    Documentation needed for WP

    Someone else might be able to give you a precise answer, but just to be safe I would look at all the documentation you need while applying for a WP in your home country and take it with you to the POE. I am applying for a WP before flying since I cannot apply for a WP at POE and I had to submit...

    processing time for temporary work permit

    Not sure if I completely understood your question, but if you are asking whether they ask you to submit any additional documentation with your medical, then here is the procedure I had to go through: I got the med request, which included section A of the medical request form, a letter from the...

    LMO Processing Time Ontario

    I'm not sure how hard or easy it is to apply in the Philippines. Perhaps someone else on here will be able to answer that part of your post better. However, the 1500 USD thing raises a red flag in my book. Is the Canadian agency you refer to an immigration consultant? If so, they cannot...

    LMO Processing Time Ontario

    The point of entry in your case would be Toronto, so thats where you would apply for the WP.

    LMO Processing Time Ontario

    doctorcoffee - thats great to hear. 12 weeks and 5 days is a long wait. I got mine in 9 weeks. Applied for the TWP, and got a medical request in 6 days! Did the medical yesterday and have to re-submit my passport to the Canadian High Commission in 5 days. I guess its a good sign that...

    processing time for temporary work permit

    Just an update on my situation: I submitted my application for TWP to the Canadian High Commission in New Delhi on the 18th of Oct. and they received it on the 19th. On the 24th I received an email alert saying my passport had been released by the CHC and was on its way back to me. I thought...

    LMO processing time in Vancouver

    That sounds very strange. I'm not sure what privacy laws your agent would be violating by giving you a copy of the refusal letter, since it is YOUR application. I would investigate things further, until your agent gives you the requested copies.

    LMO in Saskatchewan - Hospitality Sector

    Hello, My employer just applied for and received a positive LMO for me for a position located in Saskatchewan. It took 9 weeks. To answer your questions: 1. Not sure of the chances for these exact positions, but overall Saskatchewan is one of the provinces where they are looking for more...

    American working in Canada??

    That's the challenge. There have been cases where people have received the LMO in 4-6 weeks too. The Temporary Foreign Worker route via the LMO is probably the quickest way to move to Canada and work there. All the other work programs like Federal Skilled Worker (FSW) and Canadian Experience...

    American working in Canada??

    Since you are an American citizen, all you need to do is get an offer of employment from a Canadian employer in your preferred location and a positive LMO (Labour Market Opinion). The LMO is obtained for you by your employer. They have to apply for it at the HRSDC and it can take anywhere from...

    processing time for temporary work permit

    Im not sure of the processing times in your country. However, the AOR is simply an acknowledgement of receipt of your application. You getting or not getting an AOR from them does not have any bearing on whether you will receive a medical instruction, in my opinion. I have heard of cases...

    processing time for temporary work permit

    16 months is what it says on the CIC website, which is what I quoted. The website says the times given are "an average time taken to process work permit applications in 80% of the cases over the preceeding 12 months". I'm glad if the processing time is 3-4 months....a lot better than 16!

    processing time for temporary work permit

    I applied for a work permit. I guess if you applied in Abu Dhabi, then according to their website, it takes 7 months to process a work permit application there. Probably a much higher volume of applications going through that office.

    Boss who applied LMO got fired, will affect WP application?

    I'm not an expert, but I don't think either of these issues would matter as long as the new manager is aware that you are a prospective employee. So, if he gets a call from HRSDC asking for more details on your case, he/she should know what they are talking about. I'd suggest you call your...

    processing time for temporary work permit

    Just submitted my application for a TWP in India today. The CIC website says it is supposed to take about 2 months to process, although the receiving agent told me it takes a minimum of 20 working days. So, I'm guessing I should expect to hear back anywhere between 4-8 weeks. Am I supposed to...
