Hi Guys,
I have recently graduated from Humber college after completing Post Graduate Program (Not Masters) and got a job offer from a multi national company and i am a software developer so my my job profile is under NOC A.
I wanted to know the process for International Student with Job Offer stream and what all documents i will require from my company.
Hi AK,
Personally I wouldn't suggest the International Student with Job offer Stream. Here are my reasons and teh prcoess:
1. You need to get Pre_screened your employer. (For which first you have to convince your employer to submit financial documents, etc)
2. If your employer agrees than he will submit a file with the completed documentation and forms (Now wait for atleast 9 months) I had to wait 11 months.(Ontario Immigration won't respond to any queries relating to time lines and delays)
3. After you get the pre-screen you will have to submit your application with joint verification form and $1500. (Wait again for 6-9 months)
4. You than get the Ontario Nomination. (Now you are thinking you will fill in Express entry profile. Right? NO you have to do a paper profile like old days) Expected Time duration 18 months or more.
Now lets consider the fastest possible time:
Prescreen 6 months
PNP 6 months
PR 18 months
Convincing employer and gathering documents befor filing applications 1-2 momnths.
So in best case scenario you are looking at 2 years and 8 months which won't happen so a min of 3.5 years is what's the timelines are and your PG work permit is 3 years.
And not to mention you have to spend $1500 +other fees extra and Ontario has put PN on HOld since May 15th.
My recommendation. Get IELTS done when you have completed 6 months in this job.
Fill in your EE profile and wait for 10 months of Job completion as they add points early and hope you get ITA through CEC or FSW.
PS: After Pre-Screen got approved I dropped the Idea of PNP as i got my ITA.
Good Luck
