If employer doesn't apply for LMIA, then lawyer can not change that.

If your PGWP has reached its limit (up to 3 years, depending on duration of studies) then you need to find an employer to support you.

Hi

Your only option is for your employer to complete an application for an LMIA or you find another employer who has an open position (or who may sponsor you) with an LMIA approved or in process.

When your PGWP expires you will not be able to work and you will not have enough work time to file for CEC this year. Next year Express entry comes into play and that is a completely different process.

Have you spoken with your employer regards them applying for an LMIA?

We know this is not the answer your looking for but I think the message is clear.

Thx

A

It might be worth looking into another stream of PR, have a look at the Ontario Provincial Nominee Program, I'm not entirely familiar with Ontario one but it could help you
