Ah that makes sense now. Thanks for clarifying the difference ❤

Honestly, Canada isn't my final destination. It's a nice place for me stay for a few years while I figure out other stuff so PR isn't my primary concern so I'm fine with that. But I was also told about the Canada Experience Class. Wouldn't I qualify for the Canada Experience after working there...

Makes sense. I will try do something if I get my WP application gets rejected.

FTFY Yeah that's fair. I was also hoping that a "high-income" job or having "high savings" could've also helped, but I haven't found anything online to suggest so. Also, as an aside, would it be okay if I try the WP as it is, see what the officer has to say and then apply again a few years...

I also have high savings, but I don't know how that'd affect my process haha. Feeling kinda depressed now tbh.

Do you know of any specialized tech certificates I can do instead? Would they be impressed by something like an AWS certificate? I'm trying to somehow "impress" the visa officer.

Damn ok

Yeah that's fair. I'm gonna try and see how it works. Worst case scenario, my life won't be affected. Re degree not being recognized: I'm planning to get https://www.uopeople.edu/programs/online-associates/computer-science/ and it seems to be accredited in USA? I know it wouldn't be accepted...

2.5 years in general and around 2 years for my current employer. Re the degree: I've been thinking about it last weekend and I decided to speedrun an associate's degree. Found a way to get an accredited one online by stacking college credits on sophia.org.

btw @eccv, do you know where I can find data bout work visa acceptance rates for applicants with GTS LMIA? I wanna know how likely it is for me to get the visa after applying at the embassy.

Awesome, thanks!

I think I'm under category B though.

Hi everyone! I currently work as a Software Developer and somehow managed to get my employer to sponsor my visa through GTS LMIA. I have 2.5 YOE and I'm self-taught and don't have any degrees, although I did finish an online coding bootcamp. Is my profile eligible for GTS LMIA? How risky do you...
