Hi I am a live-in caregiver for my sister who has Down Syndrome. Is there some way I can claim this as work experience under the requirements to apply for a work permit under the LIC program, i.e. one year full-time employment? As she is not officially my "employer" how would this work...

Re: AEO and PR Hi all, I found out below info by emailing CIC so if anybody is in my shoes here's your answer! As long as the AEO is in a skill level A, B, or O position and the visa officer is satisfied that the applicant is able to perform and is likely to accept and carry out the...

ANYONE??

Hi In the event that an employer offers me a job, in order for me to subsequently apply for PR using that job offer does that job have to be in an occupation that I have had at least one year's work experience in within the the last 10 years? An employer is showing interest (fingers crossed)...

Hi, As I cannot apply for PR under my current job classification (1244) where I have been working for over 4 years I noticed I can apply under the social work stream. HOWEVER, here are my questions: Is the 10 year work experience cut off counted from the month or the year? e.g. I did some...

Hey Mr Rana, Thank you so much for your advice. I live in Queensland, Australia. Do you know which local visa office I would apply to? I did not know about this option. Are you saying I can apply there even if my NOC is not currently on the list? Thanks again

Thanks for your reply (I think). I'm so frustrated coz I haven't been on here for ages because I've been waiting to accrue 4 years experience to apply for residency. Then I come on all excited coz I can now do it and find out my occupation is not on the list >:( Do they change the NOCs...

Hi, I do not work full time (4 days per week) so I meant can my overtime hours count towards the ONE YEAR total? I realise if i work the required number of hours for the year I can't ADD ON extra hours so to speak for overtime worked for that one year. Thanks

Argggggh! To say it's FRUSTRATING to try to find an employer willing to sponsor somebody outside Canada for a work permit is putting it mildly. I've been trying THREE YEARS to get somebody to give me a job and I am a qualified welfare worker with 2 degrees! I've been trying in Saskatoon...

Hi, I've really already asked the question in the title. When adding work hours can I also add hours spent doing overtime? Thanks

Thanks so much for the detailed response. Much appreciated

Hi OK, I work 4 days a week so realise I need to work out the equivalent work history on 5 days a week BUT what is ONE YEAR classified as? I get 5 weeks holiday where I work so do I calculate my time over 47 weeks/year? Also getting proof of employment from past employers what do I need? I...

HI, just wondering if I studied 2 semesters of French at University as an elective subject can it count towards "Basic" French - 2 points? I don't have a certificate but on my academic records it clearly shows "Beginners French" - 1st year, and "Intermediate French" - 2nd year. Would this be...

G'day everyone. Just joined this minute as I received notification from an Immigration Lawyer saying I was eligible to apply for a Skilled Worker Visa even though on my calculations I am a few points under the requirements. Which brings me to the next question. Can I count work experience...
