Hi all, my work permit is expiring on 22 Jan, 2023. I have submitted my profile for PR with 423 points so I dont have invitation because of high CRS score. But, I am giving my certification exam for skill trade license to get extra 50 points, I had already clear 1 of 2 exam, but still need more time to clear 2nd one so I can get my license. Roughly I am still be able to get extra 65 points. But i'm not sure what should I do about my work permit extension. If I apply and It got rejected after 23 Jan ?

You aren’t eligible to extend your PGWP? You need a LMIA to apply for a closed work permit. How are you getting an extra 65 (50 for skill trade).

Is it possible to get LMIA on NOC B level job within Ontario?
It is possible if you can find an employer willing to go through the process, pay $1k and prove they cannot hire a Canadian or PR, only you. The process takes months so you need an employer with LMIA quickly.

Okay, now I can see myself clearly and to be honest I'm late for everything but I will try my best otherwise I'll leave the country.
I failed 4 times for my skill trade exam but its okay, I have my next date on 4th Jan and I'll try 100000% to clear that if npt I'm gonna leave this fucking cou try who just care more about refugees over hardworking and taxpayers immigrants.


Thank you so much for your time @Naturgrl
Really appreciated
