Join - Only CEC Inland with ICT or NAFTA who will get 50 points on Nov 19th

[rg74]

The closed work permit (ICT) which was recently renewed for me mentions a ESDC/EDSC # on it which was not there in the previous work permit issued. This could be some sort of approval/submission/assessment that the employer does at EDSC before applying for the work permit. Rest time will tell..

It looks like employer will need to get some sort of "valid assessment" done by Department of Employment and Social Development same as was for LMIA i believe. This is making it more difficult to get from employer. I think getting a job offer after PR was much simpler option. Please let me know if i am wrong.

I think it's pretty much clear here. I also checked with KPMG, visa consultant. They also said same thing that job offer is not what we are thinking:

(a) an arranged employment as defined in subsection 82(1) of the Regulations, if
(i) the offer is supported by a valid assessment — provided by the Department of Employment and Social Development at the request of the employer or an officer and on the same basis as an assessment provided for the issuance of a work permit — that the requirements set out in subsection 203(1) of the Regulations with respect to the offer have been met,
(ii) the foreign national holds a valid work permit, the offer of employment is made by an employer for whom the foreign national currently works and who is specified on the work permit, the work permit was issued based on a positive determination made by an officer under subsection 203(1) of the Regulations with respect to the foreign national’s employment with that employer in an occupation that is listed in Skill Type 0 Management Occupations or Skill Level A or B of the National Occupational Classification matrix and the assessment provided by the Department of Employment and Social Development on the basis of which the determination was made is not suspended or revoked, or
(iii) the foreign national holds a valid work permit issued under the circumstances described in paragraph 204(a) or (c) or section 205 of the Regulations, the offer is made by an employer who is specified on the work permit and the foreign national works for that employer and has accumulated at least one year of full-time work experience, or the equivalent in part-time work, over a continuous period of work for that employer;

Yes this type of letter is good enough but just need to mention that the person will work for atleast 1 yr after becoming PR. Just ammend that and you are good to go

Hi Fatani,
Thanks. Please look at the last sentence of the letter above(It is anticipated that Mr. ABC will continue to be a XYZ employee).
Does this not emphasize that the employer is willing to continue him for an indeterminate period?

Hi fatani/Members,

I have spoken to my employer and they are saying they will put "it is based on project availability" clause in the Job offer. I think this will have negative impact what do you guys think?

Yes I think its good enough.

Does this mean, You will be unemployed if there is no project?
If yes then you need to worry, Else if you are a fulltime employee then it should not be a problem

 

[jagsisingh]

I am a Permanent Employee (Full time) but i am in services sector (like Sapient who works for clients) so that's why they want to mention this line.

Just check with the Employer whether you will be localized (i.e. converted into Canadian employee) after getting PR.

 

[jagsisingh]

I am already in Toronto and employee of Canadian entity. Anyhow i tried updating my profile but i do not see Continue button to persist my updates. Its just giving "Save and Exit" button only. Is it same for everybody or just me.

Hello Folks,

You need to create a new profile if you are facing issue with a current one. If you are not able to withdraw the current profile then create a new one.
i.e., create a NEW LOGIN ID by using a new user name and password.
http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/e-services/account.asp

PLEASE CLEAR THE BROWSER CACHE(USE CTRL + SHIFT + DEL) OTHERWISE YOU WILL HAVE SAME PROBLEM..This is based on my experience.

It takes few minutes to show the new score. No need to register in JOB Bank this time.

I can't recall exactly which one but one of the questions regarding LMIA you should answer "NO, LMIA exempt" instead of "NO"

Cheers

I selected

But, still no luck.
Is there anything else that I need to take care of?
