Hello everyone, Hypothetically, if a person were to live in Canada on a work permit and purchase a house, be completely settled, and then choose to apply for PR through Express Entry, would they still have to provide proof of funds? Thank you!

Thank you for responding! Why did you need passport request? My job offer was confirmed yesterday, so I am just starting the exact same process you did. Did you find the attorney very helpful? How did you choose / find your attorney? How much did they charge you?

How long did it take for you to get your closed work permit, your wife's open work permit, and your child's study permit?

Since you are on an open work permit, it shouldn't matter if you are working a different location? I am not sure. You might want to call immigration to make sure you don't need to update your workplace with them?

Hello, I have been offered the job but I am not sure how to begin my work permit application through CUSMA? I cannot find it under the work permit section of the Canadian Immigration website, which says that I need an LMIA? Any guidance would be much appreciated, thank you! :)

Also, do debts such as cars, count as well?

So, just to clarify, in the OP's situation, would she be considered to not have adequate funds for PR or would they take into account that she is making monthly payments on her debts and has the necessary liquid cash saved up for relocation?

Hello! I am American and I have applied to the provincial board, should hear from them very soon. The employer knows that I need work authorization....how do we apply for NAFTA visa? Thank you!!

Hello again, thank you so much for getting back to me! It is a permanent job offer as a RN. I currently live in the US. Does the employer need to do a LMIA for a work permit as well? I don’t know if hospitals are LMIA exempt? I don’t mind working with a work permit for a year and then...

Hi Naturgrl, thank you for your response. We do seem to have enough points with the job offer, but how long are Express Entry applications taking to process from start to finish? (I read somewhere it used to be 6 months from invitation but now it is taking 11+ months due to COVID?) I am...

Hello everyone, I was hoping you might be able to guide me as to what we should do. My husband and I have taken the IELTS and await our results. Therefore, we haven't actually created our Express Entry profiles yet. However, I am also anticipating a job offer this month. (They have strongly...
