Hi everyone. I'm working in alberta on a young professional visa. But currently the place I work for is closed because of the Corona virus (restaurant). But I am still employed by them. How should I represent this on my ee profile? If I just change my hours to 0 then it's not true as I've worked...

Really hope things start to pick up soon. It's been very slow this month on the NOI

I work for a hotel on a young professional visa that will probably close this week. They want me back after. And had agreed to keep me on and not Lay me off. But of course that means I don't get ei. Could I be laid off, and then just be rehired for the same company in the same role with same salary?

Yeah. The problem for me is that I can't get an LMIA exemption for my next job offer, as I am already using my LMIA exemption for my current young professional visa. It will be very hard to know what will happen. It looks like the company I work for will make sure I don't get let go and have to...

I contacted ainp. And they said that a job offer for the express entry lane only counts if it has an lmia . Otherwise it does not increase your chances

I definitely know I couldn't go for AOS, as I don't have enough work experience in alberta in the last year or so. And when I do, I would have to leave. But if I state I have a job offer, which I can probably get from my employer, then I could stay during that offer if I get nominated as I could...

That is another part that confuses me. I'm not eligible to extend my visa, or get an open one. But I would be able to bridge it. I heard of someone else here who was at the end of his YP. And managed to get a nomination. But that was for AOS.

That's true. So seeing as I already work here, I should be fine then. Still have until end of September. So chances are pretty decent to get invited. Does your new contract have an end date? Or just the start? Guess I will have to talk to hr about giving me an offer with the job duties...

The tricky question there is lmia exempt. I mean if I get a nomination, then I would have enough points that I wouldn't need an lmia to get PR, which means I would work under that contract. But seeing as they talk about an lmia. Maybe it is necessary. That is unclear. I don't really know how to...

That makes it a bit different for us then. I still wonder about the job offer. What makes on valid for express entry. It is weird they they have not detailed that. Because they do say it increases the chance to be picked. Which would be nice

Hm. So i have to do it right now, while I am still in Canada on the YP visa then. What made your YP offer not valid? Mine doesn't have an end date. But I did start work in September. Are you going under express entry, or opportunity stream? Because I won't have enough time in alberta in the...

Also, do you have any good information from ainp regarding this? I definitely trust you. But I need some official information to present the idea to my employer

I was just told in a thread that a job offer will increase the chance of getting a NOI from Alberta, even if you do not have an LMIA. I can't find anything specific about that on the AINP website about not having an LMIA. Is this true, because that would definitely make it easier for me, as...

Okay that is super interesting, because I could probably get that. Are you using your young professional job offer, or a new one?

How did you get a valid job offer without having an LMIA? I thought that was necessary

Interesting. I thought you had a valid job offer though? I'm on the young professional visa too. Really hopping I get a noi, as that is pretty much my only way to stay now. Corona is shutting down a lot of places here in Canmore and Banff. Not really anyone offering lmia

I'm hoping it's just a delay and that they haven't decide not to issue one to me. So far I haven't seen any cooks without a job offer get a noi

Where in Jasper do you work? I'm trying to figure out restaurants that are able to do an lmia

That's annoying. I have 444 and noc 6322. Inland in alberta. But without job offer. And I created my profile in November.

Does anyone know if updating your express entry profile puts you further back in the ainp line? I created my profile in November. But changed the name of the company in my work history last week
