Hi Senior Members
Let me tell you a bit of history about myself before I tell you the underlying issue in hand.
I came to Canada as a Student and did a 1 year post-graduate diploma, after that I applied for Post Graduate Work Permit valid for 1 year and worked for a company, the company was willing to apply for my extension, but due to some issues that I am unaware of, the company decided to close, leaving behind 2400 employees or so. But, the good thing is I got my 1 year experience, and then I applied for Study Permit and in the meanwhile was looking for jobs as well. So, finally I got a job in a small company which outsources to its client and have been working since June 2008. The company applied for LMO and after receiving a positive response, applied for my work-permit which is valid for 2 years.
Now, the main issue is that the company has been black-listed due to some reason I am unaware of. I got to know it from a co-worker, who had applied for PR and was called for Interview….but denied, stating that the company was the main issue.
The difference between his case and my case is that he joined this company right after finishing his studies in a PG Work Permit and when he applied for extension with LMO, he was denied as well.
The question now is that I have applied for my PR in September 08 and received my File Number in March 09, but after that I have not heard back from Buffalo. I emailed them at times, but they get back to me with the same generic response.
Will this impact my PR file??
I have completed 1 year with this company, will they count it???,
Will they respect the LMO and award me 5 points????
Please, anyone who has more insight in this matter respond…
Thank you in advance
