You're good to go :) After the interview with the visa officer, they hand you the medical instructions. Barring medical inadmissibility your next step would be PPR.

My interview took 25minutes at most - the officer asked questions based on what I put on my application - so just be truthful and you do not need to worry about the interview - also make sure you have all your originals as she asked to see the originals - I applied for caregiver - so she asked me a few first aid questions- what if a child drinks something under the sink with no lable on it- what if the child chokes and the parent are out of town - common sense questions-
the other thing is why do I think Canada will be a good country for me to work in?
I was not prepared for this one but I just had to think fast and cooked up a few things like - healthcare- also I read about Canada being the most peacful country in the world - was voted by UN- the officer was impressed with this - she had read the same story online - so hey go for it - it is worthy it!- good luck to everyone and always put God first he will lead the way for you!

Thanks so much. I was sending you a personal message but your inbox is full. How long did the entire process take you (from application to receiving the LMO)?

Sorry I had sent you the response I made earlier (before you answered my query). Yes. LMO is 6 weeks, advertising for the job is two weeks. Anyway, the processing of your application was really fast!!!! Thanks for the info.

For some reason the employer said he had to advertise for 6 weeks- but after he called me to say he had filed paper work for LMO - it only took 3 weeks - and there was + LMO- wonderful!

so I guess it was a really fast process- I think if you follow the correct procedure and a little research, with some good luck charm from above ( God) - lol! ha-ha it can be fast
