Still waiting here! SC asked for more information, about transition plan I believe, to be provided on 20th Feb and the employer has rang since everything was sent in and they said its in final processing but no timeline. Hoping we're getting close to a result now. How will our employer find...

My understanding is that the work permit states that because on its own it doesn't qualify you to enter the country. As well as a work permit you need a temporary resident/visitor visa to enter Canada. Since you are a British citizen you are exempt from this step so you'll be fine to re-enter...

Are you eligible for the Skilled Trade Program ? I know one option is having a LMIA with a one year job offer but the other is holding a Canadian certificate of qualification. Perhaps you have enough experience In your Noc and can do the exam to enter express entry pool under this program

Yep still waiting, submitted mid Sept, file # and payment end of Nov, our employer got a request for more info last week. It was the first contact from Service Canada they'd had. Hoping a result comes soon. Fingers crossed for you too.

Are you sure its the wrong employer name and that company isnt registered as another name but trading as the one you know ? Just a thought as happens a lot here in NZ Might be Smith Company Ltd trading as BP Fuel. Confuses me when I get my bank statements and a random name comes up from eftpos...

Congrats!!! Can you share your timeline ?

Progress!! Our employer also got asked for more info about their transition plans for hiring my husband. Hoping we're getting close to an answer now :)

Congrats! Progress yay!

Sent you a private message :D

Since you can't get another IEC visa yes you would need a LMIA from your employer to get a temporary work permit to stay and keep working. Nothing would happen if it's denied, other than you won't be eligible for a new temporary work permit and will have to finish working when your IEC work...

My understanding is you don't need a LMiA to enter your application into the express entry pool BUT you will not the 600 points for having an organised job so you'll be enterin the Express Entry pool with less points. So depending on the points CIC is offering Invitations for residency will...

Wish I knew why too! Ours is about the same timeline as you except we had to wait 2 months just to get file #. 2 weeks ago SC said it was at the stage of 8 weeks of processing time, my count of weeks is very different to theirs, maybe they didn't count Christmas :) so now at beginning of their...

Just asked our employer if they can call again! It's apparently 10 weeks processing per SC and they had said a decision would be made in the last 2 weeks - no surprises there that that didn't happen. All this waiting is starting to cause issues! I need to make other plans if it's not going to...

Our employer rang SC on Friday and they said it was at 8 weeks of the 8-12 and there were no read flags so a decision should be reached in next two week and to keep ringing every few days. I hope it's true and not just call centre standard response :) NOC 7283 Calgary Applied 15 Sept approx Few...

Hiya You need $2500CAD http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/work/iec/index.asp?country=nz&cat=wh I don't know about the residency app but if they asked I'd be honest,they can see it all in the system anyway.

I remember reading about being able to apply for the NZ IEC as well as Australian one if you had both citizenships, the websites have changed now so hard to find that info but there are heaps of other dual citizens asking about it if you google it. I'd say it's possible depending on the Irish...

Congrats Jovie! Hope ours come through soon too!!!

This should help - depending on where you are up to in the process http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/helpcentre/answer.asp?q=861&t=25

Judging by the email address alone I'd say scam, I wouldn't expect a large scale branded company to use a yahoo or non branded email address. If you google the hotel and scam job offer you'll see it posted multiple times as a scam. Grammar is incorrect in the email and reference to Canadian...

I think someone else recently posted they only got their work visa issued until the expiry date of their passport. Not sure if they would extend if you had to renew your passport after the fact. I'd get a new one to be on the safe side if you can confirm it's going to be two year visas this...
