even when you get an lmo you can still change employer. of course you have to state the reason for the change and i'm not sure what kind of paperwork is required. i assume you can change employer in this case as well, if there's something wrong. and yes, they do know if you work for someone...

you can enter canada on a tourist visa, yes; however, if you already have an application pending you might have an issue at border control. you see, the iec program is supposed to be "done" from outside canada, upon entrance they give you your work permit. when they swipe your passport in the...

congratulations! now another task is to find a job.

just a note here. i just got a work permit. and i can't even get a job as a waitress! i don't have experience. well duh, no one will hire me in financial institutions as i don't have canadian experience. then again, no one will hire me in one of the industries with jobs available, namely f&b...

hello there empirical-scientist, thank you for the very helpful post. i have been agonizing on how to do this. i got the esta approval from the us and it seems i just spent 14$ for nothing. i have till 2015 to activate so it won't go to waste ;D i have two questions for you: 1. i have been...

i'm happy for you. you'll have the positive response in no time, judging from my experience. if you can afford to start from a smaller city, go for it. although toronto is full of greeks and having the ability both yourself and your wife to work in canada you would be able to find jobs pretty...

one final note and i'll leave you guys to go to sleep, i just paid the insurance (ouch!) and it covers me for repatriation to residence among others. total cost 1,128$ which is 868 euros... :'(

plaka kaneis?

again you're lucky, or maybe made a better choice. we're in vancouver, not toronto. the greek community here is very small and we have been there and the only thing they could offer was a job for psaltis, which as you can imagine is not something my husband could do. they were quite reluctant in...

what? no! no medics for greece, this is the iec program, as long you haven't spent time in a country that requires medical exams you don't take them.

of course, so here's my timeline iec conditional acceptance letter: 08/03/2013 proof of payment verified: 12/03/2013 cic application submission confirmation: 14/03/2013 cic approval loi:25/03/2013 loi was signed by the canadian embassy in rome.

you're so lucky! you have nothing to worry with the iec. considering the timeplan you have, everything will work out great in the end. i wish my husband could be included in the program than our problems wouldn't be so huge. i don't know how he can stay here while i am, we're thinking the...

again don't worry about that either. i've stated that my husband will be accompanying me and he's greek on a tourist visa! you've got nothing to worry about, besides, she's canadian she can come and go to her country anytime. why bother with the iec program and not go through with family...

hi everyone (geia se olous) there are a lot of us trying to immigrate to canada, it's both good and bad, bad for our country, for leaving it behind and good for our lives, wow did i get philosophical or what ;D beholder, my police certificate had a stamp signature on and i couldn't translate...

geia sou. i'm having the same problem as you. i'm here on a visitor visa and i want to leave the borders and enter again. i have already acquired the esta approval from usa. as for the health insurance, i haven't started one yet, but will do so first thing monday morning. i looked for insurances...

well then, i'd say go ahead with the diploma in power engineering. there's no point in doing the same thing just because it's in a different country. it's chemistry, it's the same all over the world! also chemical engineering could be a little bit different but still easy given your background...

i know you're worried about leaving a better credential for a lower one, msc for a diploma. how about phd? if you get accepted in a phd program you could get permanent residence in canada. have you checked the oil companies and their positions for chemists? is your undergraduate degree in...

i'm a potential immigrant myself, but i've been intensively searching for jobs through canada and i've come to realize that engineering is a field that can help you secure a job quite easily. i think chemistry would provide you a better position in one of the many oil companies in the country...

OMG! OMG! OMG! i'm so excited i'm writing in capitals! here's my timeline: iec conditional acceptance letter: 08/03/2013 proof of payment verified: 12/03/2013 cic application submission confirmation: 14/03/2013 cic approval loi:25/03/2013 loi was signed by the canadian embassy in rome. good...

you're welcome, Danijel. i just wish there was someone to tell me these things one year ago. check out if your cousin can sponsor you, if he doesn't have any family in canada. take a look at the family class on cic.gc.ca.
