Dear all,
I am an actuary which was internally transferred by company from Hong Kong office to Toronto office. I am currently holding a work permit. I landed at Toronto and started working in Dec 2012. I have a full time, permanent job offer (open end, no contract end date, contract only mentioned it is contingent on maintaining a valid SIN and work permit.)
I am quite sure my work experience is a skill type 0 (managerial occupations) or skill level A (professional occupations) or B (technical occupations and skilled trades). And I have more than 5 years working experience in the same field before working in Toronto.
I would like to know:
1. If I am considered having a valid offer of arranged employment
2. my eligibility for FSW
3. FSW vs CEC - If I am eligible for FSW, should I apply it at once? Or shall I wait for 1 year and then apply through CEC?
4. FSW vs CEC - which one is easier to get approved? I am afraid if I failed FSW, it will waste my time as I wont apply CEC and FSW at the same time.
5. My wife is accompanying me in Toronto and has a spouse work permit. If I apply through FSW/CEC, can I apply as principal applicant and her as dependant so we can be granted PR at the same time?
Many thanks for your opinion and help!
