Hi,

My situation is as follows, I already have an open work permit that expires at the beginning of 2016, and they gave me the LMIA that I have to activate before September 2015. I know LMIA gives 600 points for the Express Entry, but is there any expiration days to use the LMIA for the express entry? I mean, if I activate the LMIA right now will I be able to use this LMIA for my Express Entry?

Thanks in advance!

What is stopping you to activate it? Once you activate it and your job offer is permanent , you will get ITA in next draw.

Is not what is stopping me, is that I just want to know if the LMIA works for the express entry before activating it, after activating it or in both situations.

You're just confused. Activate the LMIA and get your immigration already!

I can't do the express entry yet, and the LMIA I have to activate before September. I don't know if I will be able to get everything in order to apply for express entry before September. That's why I'm asking.
