Re: EXTENSION OF WORK PERMIT and EE

Neeths said:
Hi.. I am under implied status now.. I can only work for few more days. My employer will give LMIA for me to apply under EE.. Can I use this LMIA for extension of my work permit? My lawyer says I cant.. CIC said I can.. WHOM SHOULD I BELIEVE? My lawyer said that there are two different types of LMIAs.. one to use for EE and another one to use for work permit extension..... CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME?
You have to believe CIC not your lawyer. Better write to CIC.

Hi Guys,

Can you please let me know if Express Entry has impacted the Provincial nominee program as well? I am an international student in Ontario and was planning to apply for PR after getting a nomination from Ontario province. I will complete my degree in next few months and do not have any work experience in Canada. My understanding is that express entry is applicable only to those who are not already in Canada.

Please guide me.

Thanks.

Can anyone help me with this query? I am confused

So, if I understand it correctly, in the education part of EE you have to input your education port high school.

So I created 2 entries there, one for my college diploma and the other for my mba diploma.

My ICAS report says the following:
- Bachelor's Diploma (4 years)
- Post Bachelor's Degree

The question is, in both entries mentioned above should I choose the option under "Level of Education" right before they ask about canadian degree as "Two or more certificates, diplomas or degrees" ? Or "Bacherlor's Degree or a three or more year program etc etc" for both?

Thanks in advance

Express Entry is now used by anyone wishing to immigrate to Canada under either FSWP, FSTP, CEC and PNP, doesn't matter if you are in Canada or not.
