CAN COOKS APPLY UNDER FSTW WITH ARRANGED EMPLOYMENT IN CANADA

[money.sandhu]

HI EVERYONE,
I AM PREPARING MY VISA APPLICATION FOR WORK PERMIT FOR CANADA FROM INDIA ( THRU LMO) AND MY EMPLOYER ALSO SUGGESTING ME THAT I CAN ALSO APPLY FOR FEDERAL SKILLED TRADE WORKER/ FSW WITH JOB OFFER. I CHECK ELIGIBLE OCCUPATIONS AND COOK IS NOT ON THE LIST. BUT ACCORDING TO MY EMPLOYER IF I HAVE ARRANGED EMPLOYMENT IN CANADA AND MEET OTHER ELIGIBILITY (IELTS,EXPERIENCE ETC ) STILL I CAN APPLY FOR THAT. I'M NOT FEELING COMFORTABLE WITH THAT. BUT WHEN I DID SELF ASSESSMENT ON CIC WEBSITE WITH MY CRITERIA,ITS SAYS I MAY BE ELIGIBLE. COULD ANYBODY KINDLY ADVICE IF CAN APPLY FOR FSTW/FSW.

THANK YOU SO MUCH.
MY DETAILS:- 2 YEARS FULL TIME WORK EXPERIENCE AS COOK
2 YEAR DIPLOMA IN COOKERY
IELTS:- L 6.5 R 6 W 6 S 6

REGARDS,
AMAR

Yes. To apply under fsw, you need to have experience in one of the occupations on the list OR have arranged employment in any occupation secured on the basis of an lmo. I have applied under the same category even though cooks are not on the list.

Sure, why not!
I am also applicant as a cook in FSW program. You are enough to apply in FSW with arranged employment.
