Hello everybody,
I'm sorry to bother you or if I do not write the right people, but I do not know where to write more and give a reply with the answer.
I am 28 years. I came from Serbia 25 June 2011 in Vancouver in the family to do live in caregiver job childcare. I started working July 4 and on July 16 stopped working the former employer told me I have me in advance to ensure interviews next day and go on job interviews. I also they told me can not have me because of financial problems.
In another family-employer I went to 21 July 2011 and the beginning of August we started the procedure for for new work permit. The procedure lasted from August 2011 until February the 13th 2012th
Two days ago they told me they resign and I have 2 weeks resign time to find another family.
Because I have some friends in Toronto, I think that I go there and to stay couple days with my friends and to looking the family to a new employer.
What are my rights here? whether I am still in the country legally, and what do I do?
namely, in 2011 I was in the Canadian embassy in Belgrade, Serbia obtained a work visa until 31/08/2013, with the other family here in Canada I got work permit to 13.02.2014.
but I have a visa in your passport until 31/08/2013.
what to do and how much time I have to find another family time ?

I came without agency,because we dont have them in Serbia for this program,so all paperwork me and my employers do alone without...so I am little confused now and in little shock...

Thanks for everythnig even little response ,advice,anything
 
Please....:( :)
I need little advice and information ...
I am legal in country now and how long i can be without family employer?
 
Well you can stay for the duration of your visa, but you need to work. i suggest you look for another employer, with an LMO in another area or look for another family to work for.Good luck
 
Go to westcoast domestics; they might be able to help if you have problems doing the WP application but finding an employer should be done by you.

Yes - you need a new LMO no matter where you end up.
 
If you're in the lower mainland, there are lots of agencies looking to place nannies with families. Of course families or agencies need face to face interviews, though you may start with exchanging emails. You can drop in where these "organizations" who help people and if your need is urgent they will entertain you. This is not the time to let the "fingers do the walking". This is the time when real "leg work " is necessary. Get the agencies' numbers and addresses and go. You can stay legally in Canada until the expiry of your WP.
