My employer called SC yesterday and they said the result will possibly come out until the end of december before holidays, my question is it usually accurate what the SC employees say?

In the interview the lady from service canada asked for additional document about the ads and salary.
This is good or but?
My employer send them with fax.
When to expect the final answer

I think its good. So your application is in process. Good luck. Hopefully she was satisfied with rest of the documents and needed them. In my opinion this is a good sign. When did you submitted your application?

Well considering my case and others recently posted here, it looks like the processing time for Skilled Workers who submitted their applications to St John it's been about 90 days... I'll post when mine gets processed... Hopefully with a positive outcome! ;D

Hey guys,

I'm in Canada on a Post-grad work permit that expires towards the end of December and I'm obviously trying to stay. My employer is applying for an LMIA in about a week or so, just finalizing the application now, and by mid-December I'll have entered my name into the Express Entry pool (waiting to do the English test and get the results, even though it's been my first language for 25 years.

cic.gc.ca/ENGLISH/work/low-skill.asp - here it says you can apply for a work permit extension as you are awaiting the news on your LMIA. Even if this application doesn't get accepted, I plan to use it as a stalling tactic to allow me to continue working until I either a) get a positive LMIA, or b) get an ITA for PR. As a UK citizen who last entered Canada late September, I have legal status until end of March, by which time hopefully one of these avenues will have worked out.

Any ideas, tips, hints, do's or don'ts? I know it's a general question, but any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks guys!

Any updates?

Please, post your timelines if any updates.

I am sure there are dozens of approved LMIAs, but they don't share with us :(
